Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1.Age group of 18 to 60 years 2.ASA(American Society of Anesthesiologists) physical status I /II 3.Patients undergoing elective surgery requiring general anaesthesia with endotracheal intubation.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1.Morbid obesity BMI > 35KG/m2 2.Known airway pathology (oropharynx, larynx ) 3.Patients at increased risk of aspiration like gastroesophageal reflux, peptic ulcer 4.Previous upper gastrointestinal surgery 5.Pregnancy 6.Coagulopathy or history of anticoagulant use 7.Cardiorespiratory or cerebrovascular disease 8.Cervical spine injury

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Ease of intubation will be assessed depending on 1.Time taken for intubation (TTI) 2.Number of attempts for endotracheal intubation. 3.Glottic view (Cormack &Lehane and POGO). 4.Need for other maneuvers like change of blade, patient position or applying external laryngeal pressure. 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

MeasureTime frame
1.Heart Rate (HR), Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP), Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP), Oxygen Saturation (SpO2), Electrocardiogram (ECG) and End tidal carbon (EtCO2 ) be monitored. 2.Any other intra or post operative findings and adverse events. 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. 2. Intra or post operative findings and adverse events will be documented during and after endotracheal intubation and post extubation.
