| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To evaluate and compare C-MAC D-Blade videolaryngoscope with McCoy laryngoscope for time taken for tracheal intubation in patients with simulated restricted neck mobility undergoing elective surgery under general anaesthesia.Timepoint: Outcome (TTI) will be assessed at point of appearance of square wave capnograph on monitor after the introduction of device in mouth and subsequent endotracheal tube placement. [TTI- defined as time of introduction of device in mouth to the confirmation of endotracheal tube placement by a square wave capnograph on the monitor]. | — |
