Comparison of VIDIAC, PeDiAC and Intubation Difficulty Scale in Pediatric Patients Undergoing Videolaryngoscopic Intubation
This prospective observational study aims to evaluate three scoring systems (VIDIAC (Video Laryngoscopic Intubation and Difficult Airway Classification), PeDiAC (Pediatric Difficult Airway Classification), and the Intubation Difficulty Scale (IDS)). A total of 450 children undergoing general anesthesia with videolaryngoscopic intubation will be included in the study. Demographic data, intraoperative parameters, and glottic imaging, as well as detailed intubation-related variables such as total intubation time, number of attempts, complications, and subjective intubation ease scores will be recorded.
