All neonates of either sex, (0 to 28 days), weight >=2.5 kg, gestation age >37wks with COPUR score between 5-10, ASA grade I and II, scheduled for surgeries expected to last for less than one-hour duration under general anaesthesia in the supine position

Exclusion Criteria

The neonates whose parents refused to be a part of the study.

Any neonate with abnormal or distorted anatomy of the airway or with obstruction of the airway beyond the larynx like a foreign body, mass(cancer), strictures, congenital obstruction, vocal cord scarring, inflammatory conditions like laryngitis, bronchitis, laryngeal papillomatosis. Neonates with any history of seizures, prematurity, or weight <2.5kgs.

If we face difficulty in ventilating a neonate then that neonate will not be a part of the study. Those neonates who are already on mechanical ventilation or oxygen therapy or were on ventilatory support in the past 15 days will be excluded from the study.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To determine and compare air leak around micro cuffed vs uncuffed endotracheal tubes by analyzing inspiratory and expiratory tidal volumes under controlled ventilation in neonates during general anesthesia.Timepoint: 2 HRS
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
1.Intubation time <br/ ><br>2.Perioperative manipulations required (changing of tube cuffed/uncuffed, repositioning of tube, throat pack insertion, need to increase the inspiratory pressure to reach acceptable tidal volume). <br/ ><br>3. Number of attempts to insert and correctly size the tracheal tube. <br/ ><br>4.Any difference in hemodynamic changes during intubation between two groups <br/ ><br>5.Post operative complicationsTimepoint: 2 HRS
