Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Time to intubation (TTI) in secondsTimepoint: Time to intubation : Time interval between blade entry past the lips and the appearance of first upstroke of the end-tidal CO2 tracing

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. Percentage of glottis opening (POGO) score % 2. Visual analogue scores (VAS) for field of view 3. Time to best view (TTBV) 4. Visual Analogue Scale(VAS) for ease of useTimepoint: 1. Percentage of glottis opening (POGO) score % : 0 to 100 2. Visual analogue scores (VAS) for field of view : 0 to 10 -point scale. 3. Time to best view (TTBV) in seconds : Time interval between blade entry past the lips and the laryngoscopistâ??s verbal declaration that the best view for endotracheal intubation is achieved. 4. Visual Analogue Scale(VAS) for ease of use : 0 to 10 -point scale.
