- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Ease of intubation will be assessed depending on <br/ ><br>1.Time taken for intubation (TTI) <br/ ><br>2.Number of attempts for endotracheal intubation. <br/ ><br>3.Glottic view (Cormack &Lehane and POGO). <br/ ><br>4.Need for other maneuvers like change of blade, patient position or applying external laryngeal pressure. <br/ ><br>Timepoint: All primary outcomes will be measured from the time of introduction of device in mouth to the confirmation of endotracheal tube placement by a square wave capnogram on the monitor.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method 1.Heart Rate (HR), Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP), Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP), Oxygen Saturation (SpO2), Electrocardiogram (ECG) and End tidal carbon (EtCO2 ) be monitored. <br/ ><br>2.Any other intra or post operative findings and adverse events. <br/ ><br>Timepoint: 1.Hemodynamic parameters (HR, SBP, DBP, SpO2, ECG, EtCO2) will be recorded at 1 minute interval during intubation and at 5 minute interval for 15minutes after intubation. <br/ ><br>2. Intra or post operative findings and adverse events will be documented during and after endotracheal intubation and post extubation. <br/ ><br>
