- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Time required for successful intubation 1 day
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method cumulative success ratios related to time 1 day cumulative success ratio was counted as percentage of successful intubations in time intervals in all scenarios
Cormack&Lehane grade 1 day glottic view during intubation rate using Cormack\&Lehane grade
Dental Compression 1 day the severity of the potential dental trauma was calculated based on previously described modified grading scale (Svoldelli, 2009)
Ease of intubation 1 day To access subjective opinion about the difficulty of each intubation method, participants were asked to rate it on a visual analog scale (VAS) with a score from 1 (extremely easy) to 10 (extremely difficult).
success rate of intubation attempt 1 day success rate of first, second and third intubation attempt
