Correct airway management depends not only on familiarity with the different airway devices available, but also on an in-depth understanding of airway anatomy, which will allow the anaesthesiologist to make an informed assessment of the airway before proceeding with anaesthesia induction. The criteria traditionally used to predict difficult airway (DA) have low sensitivity, specificity and positive predictive value, above all when used in isolation,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0120"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1,3</span></a> and new, more reliable objective criteria are needed.</p><p id="par0010" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Ultrasound is a safe, rapid and reproducible tool that has already proven useful in fields such as regional anaesthesia and evaluation of critical patients.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0135"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> The introduction of smaller, point of care ultrasound systems, together with improved image quality, has drastically increased the use of this technology in many specialist fields.

The measurements were affected by different anthropometric parameters that could be of interest in future studies, since it could, in theory, affect the predictive capacity of difficult glottic access in direct laryngoscopy.</p><p id="par0135" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Correct airway management relies to a great extent on an in-depth knowledge of the anatomy of the neck. An accurate evaluation of the airway cannot be obtained using clinical parameters, and the theoretical evaluation often differs from the opinion of an airway expert. There is a clear need for objective criteria that will yield more accurate predictions. For this reason, we analysed the correlation between sonoanatomy and the real anatomy of the upper airway in healthy volunteers (with no cervical or airway pathology) and corpse models. We saw that it is relatively simple to identify the different airway structures on the ultrasound image, and that anatomical views obtained by ultrasound correspond to the real anatomy observed in the cadaver models. Our study includes valuable iconographic images that objectively describe the internal anatomy of the neck. These are of great value to anaesthesiologists, and are essential for safe airway management. The image quality was excellent in most cases (93%), and all the measurements of the different anatomical structures could be identified in all patients: tracheal diameter, true vocal cord, cricothyroid membrane, cricotracheal membrane, thickness of the floor of the mouth, thickness of the musculature of the floor of the mouth, palate-floor of the mouth distance, mandible-hyoid distance, soft/hard palate angle, and palate-mandible distance. However, given the characteristics of the sample, the ease with which structures were identified and distances measured in healthy adults cannot necessarily be extrapolated to patients with pathology, the elderly, or patients with DA criteria. Nevertheless, our findings have shown that anthropometric variables (sex and height) affect some of the parameters measured. The impact of these variables should be studied in the future through multivariate statistical analysis, given the relationship between sex and height.</p><p id="par0140" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The established morphological criteria used in airway evaluation have low sensitivity and specificity in the prediction of DA, particularly when considered in isolation.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0120"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1,3</span></a> At present, pre-intubation laryngoscopy continues to be the gold standard in airway assessment. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are particularly useful imaging studies in this context. However, a pre-intubation laryngoscopy report is not always available, and radiological studies are only available for patients with known airway pathology, and will not therefore be available in most cases.</p><p id="par0145" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Point-of-care ultrasound is a safe, versatile technique that is increasingly used in critical patients.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0135"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> Nowadays, state-of-the-art portable devices with good image resolution are available in most surgical suites, intensive care units, emergency rooms, and outpatient departments, and even in the home care setting. Ultrasound is a safe, fast, non-invasive technique that gives clinicians real-time, dynamic images that can aid diagnosis.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0135"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4,6,7</span></a> In addition, while other imaging techniques require patient positioning and subsequent reconstruction of axial images, ultrasound can be used in different positions and can acquire images in multiple planes.

However, we were unable to find a description of objective measurements for many of these anatomical structures in the literature.</p><p id="par0150" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Most of the studies we reviewed merely describe the ultrasound characteristics and relationship between different airway structures, and the few anatomical series that describe normal parameters for the general population provide contradicting data. For example, according to Or et al., the accuracy of 3D ultrasound measurement of the transverse diameter of the subglottic space is overestimated when compared with MRI Images<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0145"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a>; Husein et al. in their study in children claimed it to be underestimated,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0195"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">16</span></a> while Gómez-Tamayo and Lakhal et al. consider it accurate.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0200"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">17,18</span></a> These differences arise, in part, because the same structure is measured at a different anatomical level and in a different plane by all theses authors, making it difficult to compare the studies. In addition, the posterior wall of the trachea cannot be visualised due to artefacts created by the intraluminal air column.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0210"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">19</span></a> Although these artefacts are used to describe the different elements, they are still merely estimates of what they are believed to represent. It is also interesting to note that many studies have been carried out in different paediatric age groups, chosen because of their superior ultrasound window, which makes comparison impossible.</p><p id="par0155" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">A review of similar studies has shown that our results are comparable. Or et al., for example, in their comparison of ultrasound and MRI measurements, observed that the transverse diameter of the upper trachea measured with ultrasound was 1.50<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>±<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>0.23<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>cm vs. 1.47<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>±<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>0.20<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>cm with MRI,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0145"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a> while in our study it was 1.4<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>±<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>0.3<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>cm in men and 1.2<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>±<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>0.2<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>cm in women. In our case, the results were gender-weighted, and we observed that differences in the length of the vocal cord and the tracheal diameter correlated significantly with height. As mentioned above, these data suggest that the differences in measurement observed between men and women could be more attributable to the height of the individual than to their gender.</p><p id="par0160" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">We also found weight-related differences. The increased thickness of airway tissue has been traditionally considered a predictor of DA.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0125"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a> The introduction of ultrasound has allowed clinicians to quantitatively assess the volume of cervical fatty tissue and its correlation with difficult intubation, although studies have so far reported contradictory results,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0215"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">20–23</span></a> and we therefore considered it important to divide our sample according to weight (BMI less and greater than 25). This allowed us to observe differences in the thickness of the floor of the mouth, but not in the thickness of the musculature. Again, height correlated significantly with the thickness of the muscles of the floor of the mouth, in addition to the distances between the hyoid and the mandible, and between the mandible and the palate. Age was not correlated with the rest of the parameters studied.</p><p id="par0165" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Our study has limitations, insofar as it is not possible to extrapolate the measurements found in a group of patients with very specific characteristics to the general population and, specifically, to the surgical population. It is important to note that, although we studied a large group of volunteers, we only obtained a limited number of anatomical samples, so we were unable to verify the extent to which the ultrasound images matched the samples taken from the cadaver models. Furthermore, although the study population was composed of healthy volunteers who did not meet the usual clinical criteria for DA, laryngoscopy was not performed in any of our subjects. This means that we cannot conclusively exclude the presence of DA in our subjects, and accordingly cannot claim that our sample is wholly representative of patients with normal airway.</p><p id="par0170" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Another factor to consider is that, as in other studies, ultrasound examination was performed with the subject in the supine position with the neck in slight extension, and not hyperextension, which is the usual position for intubation. Neither did we differentiate between inspiratory and expiratory phase. These differences could modify the ultrasound morphology of the cervical anatomy.</p><p id="par0175" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Another limitation encountered was the air present between the tongue and palate, which hampered visualisation of these structures. To overcome this obstacle, some authors have filled their subjects’ mouths with water during the ultrasound scan to facilitate transmission.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0140"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a> However, the contraction of the mouth muscles needed to avoid swallowing the liquid can alter the regional morphology during the study, so we decided to prioritise morphology over image quality.</p><p id="par0180" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Finally, the study sample consisted of mostly European and South American individuals, to the exclusion of other populations. In addition, data from all participants were pooled for the purpose of analysis, without distinguishing between ethnicities. These data were then compared with other studies, mostly conducted in Eastern countries, that did not distinguish between races either.</p></span><span id="sec0025" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0085">Conclusions</span><p id="par0185" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">We can conclude that ultrasound was a useful tool in the anatomical study of the upper airway, and allowed us to measure the distances between airway structures.</p><p id="par0190" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Although our sample was limited to adult volunteers with no standard clinical criteria of difficulty airway, it allowed us to define a series of distances considered “normal” and their relationship with anthropometric parameters.</p><p id="par0195" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Further studies are needed to specifically determine the correlation between the different airway measurements obtained by ultrasound and the different levels of intubation difficulty.</p></span><span id="sec0030" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0090">Authorship/collaborators</span><p id="par0200" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">L.
