Inclusion Criteria

Patients scheduled for orofacial cancer surgeries requiring nasal intubation who fall under following criteria;

1. American Society of Anesthesiologists

(ASA) class Iâ??III

2. Age 18â??70 years

3. El Ganzouri risk index (EGRI â?? total)

between 1 â?? <= 7

will be included in our study.

Difficult airway is graded by EGRI for difficult airway prediction based on seven parameters: - body weight [kg], modified Mallampati class, mouth opening [cm],

Thyromental distance [cm], neck movement [°], prognathism, and history of difficult airway; with a score ranging from 0 to 12 will be used in our study [Table 1]

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
This research project will help to evaluate the two techniques in terms of the time taken in seconds,attempts in number and ease for successful nasotrachel intubation using c mac d blade video laryngoscope in a difficult airway of oro facial malignancy cases posted for surgery.Outcome will be assessed after collecting data from estimated sample size or within 14 months/56 weeks whichever is earlier.Timepoint: This research project will help to evaluate the two techniques in terms of the time taken in seconds for successful intubation,attempts in number and ease for successful nasotrachel intubation using c mac d blade video laryngoscope in a difficult airway of oro facial malignancy cases posted for surgery.
