Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Rate of successful intubation in first attemptTimepoint: number of successful intubation in first attempt. After intubation through the airway device whether ETCO2 graph appears or not was noted in first attempt( If ETCO2 graph detected on the monitor, intubation was considered successful) | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| overall success rate, ease of SGA insertion and intubation, time to SGA insertion and intubation and adverse events.Timepoint: Time taken to insert the airway was noted from holding the device to successfully inserting the device. Time taken to intubation was noted from holding the tube in hand to successful intubation. i e appearance of ETCO2 curve on the monitor. Adverse events like sore throat, horseness, vocal cord paralysis was assessed soon after extubation and 24 hours after the procedure | — |
