ABSTRACT
Introduction: for the management of the airway in obstetric patient informed in an
emergency, it is necessary to evaluate and identify the degree of complexity presented
in them.
Objective: to validate the usefulness of a morphometric diagnostic method as a
predictive methodological proposal for determining the degree of complexity of
orotracheal intubation.
Methods: an analytical, observational study was performed in pregnant women
informed with acute fetal distress, in Guantanamo, and who were proposed for general
ortotracheal anesthesia. Out of a target group of 304 pregnant women, by a
probabilistic determination, a sample of 152 pregnant women was taken given the
necessity to increase predictive safety before orotracheal intubation in these patients.
Antecedents were reviewed as referring to different predictive methods in written
literature, among which Benomuf and El Ganzouri were outstanding authors. The
morphometric diagnostic method was proposed to be correlated with the method of
Cormack-Lehane.
Results: 100% of diagnostic sensibility and specificity was observed, together with
positive and negative predictive values at 100% respectively.
Conclusions: the predictive value of morphometric diagnostic method is shown, with
high predictive accuracy for orotracheal intubation in pregnant women with acute fetal
distress. On including the clinical history of the usual snorer in indistinct positions to
the overall evaluation of the different predictive clinical tests, reason why predictive
confidence of the limitation degree is increased to the maximum.
