ASA 1 - Healthy patient without organic, biochemical, or psychiatric disease
ASA 2 - A patient with mild systemic disease, e.g., mild asthma or well-controlled hypertension. No significant impact on daily activity. Unlikely to have an impact on anesthesia and surgery
ASA 3- Significant or severe systemic disease that limits normal activity, e.g., renal failure on dialysis or class 2 congestive heart failure. Significant impact on daily activity. Probable impact on anesthesia and surgery
ASA 4-Severe disease that is a constant threat to life or requires intensive therapy, e.g., acute myocardial infarction, respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation. Serious limitation of daily activity. Major impact on anesthesia and surgery
ASA 5-Moribund patient who is equally likely to die in the next 24 hours with or without surgery
ASA 6-Brain-dead organ donor
Duration of surgery more than 2 hours
Emergency surgery
Surgery in positions other than supine
Pathology of neck or upper repiratory tract
Potential difficult intubation
Mouth opening less than 2.5 cms

- Not specified
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Duration of insertionTimepoint: Time from picking up the device to first successful breath made by manual ventilation
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Hemodynamic effectsTimepoint: Pulse Rate , Blood Pressure (systolic , diastolic & mean) , Oxygen saturation are monitored and recorded.;Leak volumesTimepoint: The difference between inspired tidal volume (ITV) and expired tidal volume (ETV);Number of insertion attemptsTimepoint: A failed attempt is defined as removal of the device from the mouth before re-insertion.;Perioperative ComplicationsTimepoint: Bronchospasm ,Laryngospasm and coughing , trauma , postoperative sore throat (constant pain, independent of swallowing), dysphagia (difficulty or pain with swallowing), dysphonia (difficulty or pain with speaking);Reposition attemptsTimepoint: Manipulations allowed: gentle pushing or pulling of the device, chin lift, jaw thrust, head extension, or neck flexion.;Sealing pressure (airway leak pressure)Timepoint: Measuring the minimal airway pressure at which an audible gas leak occurred using a stethoscope placed just lateral to thyroid cartilage.
