- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Ease of orotracheal tube placement using C-MAC® video laryngoscope and McGRATH® MAC video laryngoscope.Timepoint: Time (in seconds) to intubate the trachea, starting from picking up the video laryngoscope <br/ ><br>to successful placement of endotracheal tube as confirmed by auscultation of breath sounds, and <br/ ><br>presence of square wave capnography on monitor will be noted. If more than one intubation attempt is required, time from insertion of the laryngoscope for the first intubation attempt until confirmation of successful intubation by capnography will be considered to be the total intubation time.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method 1.Time (in seconds) taken for orotracheal intubation using C-MAC® video laryngoscope and McGRATH® MAC video laryngoscope. <br/ ><br>2.Hemodynamic effects and oxygen saturation changes during orotracheal intubation using C-MAC® video laryngoscope and McGRATH® MAC video laryngoscope. <br/ ><br>3.Complication/s (if any) <br/ ><br>Timepoint: 1 min, 3 min, 5 min, 7 min and 10 min
