| Popis: | Many modified Mallampati tests have been developed to date. Samsoon’s modified Mallampati test (standard Mallampati test) is currently widely used. We newly designed seven types of assessment protocol of Mallampati test, in addition to standard Mallampati test. In this study, we studied the correlation between eight types of protocol (standard and seven alternative protocols) of Mallampati test and Cormack–Lehane test. We newly designed assessment protocols as new Mallampati test. These are different protocols depending on the presence or absence of phonation, those of protrusion of tongue, and sitting position or supine position. The oropharyngeal structures visualized by these eight types of Mallampati test for total of 145 patients undergoing dental oral surgery were evaluated. The scores derived via eight types of Mallampati test were recorded. The influence of phonation, tongue protrusion and body position on Mallampati test score was analyzed, respectively. The relationships between eight types of Mallampati test and Cormack–Lehane test were analyzed. Tongue protrusion, phonation and sitting position tended to lower the score of Mallampati test (p |
