Not yet recruiting

• Conditions: Medical and Surgical,

• Registration Number: CTRI/2022/02/040412
• Lead Sponsor: Maulana Azad Medical College and associated Lok Nayak Hospital

Brief Summary

This prospective randomized study will be conducted on 166 patients undergoing elective surgeries under general anaesthesia. General anaesthesia will be induced using standard dosage of  fentanyl, propofol and vecuronium. Patients will be randomly allocated into one of the groups ;Group F and Group R.

Group F:Using  Macintosh blade of C Mac video laryngoscope, full view of glottis inlet will be exposed and endotracheal intubation will be done.

Group R: Using Macintosh blade of  C Mac videolaryngoscope, POGO View of 50% of  less will be obtained and endotracheal intubation will be done.

Two attempts of intubation will be permissible. In case of failure at intubation on first attempt despite manouvers, second intubation attempt at same glottis view will be done using a styleted endotracheal tube.

Total time taken for intubation, number of attempts needed,number of manouvers required for facilitaing intubation, operator comfort scale and any injuries to oropharyngeal  structures and dentition.
