Brief Summary

**RATIONALE :** Although direct laryngoscopescontinue to be used as the standard intubating aid, various studies have shownthat video laryngoscopes offer advantages over direct laryngoscopes like abetter visualization of the vocal cords and lesser time taken to intubatesuccessfully using the latter. Studies have also been done to compare differenttypes of video laryngoscopes, but, by far, no study has been conducted tocompare King Vision video laryngoscope and I-View video laryngoscope in adultpatients. Therefore, the present randomized single blinded control study isaimed at comparing the ease of intubation using the aforementionedlaryngoscopes.
