Brief Summary

This is a study comparing two  airway devices used for intubation in patients under General anesthesia.  The two devices used in this study have been designed with certain minute variations but serves the same purpose of being  highly beneficial in situations  of difficult airway, in patients with respiratory infections & in COVID 19 patients. The major difference among them  is their cost difference . Hence in  our study we  will be able to evaluate the efficacy and superiority of one device over the other . This will also enable us to asess their cost effectiveness.  If we find in our study the  indian model device to be safe  and effective then that can be the trendsetter and can be  utilised in future especially in resource limited settings and developing countries .
