A study to compare sucess rate of tracheal intubation using two endotracheal tubes with different designs through a type of intubating airway known as air-Q.

A study to compare conventional polyvinyl chloride endotracheal tube with parker flex tip endotracheal tube for blind tracheal intubation through air-Q intubating laryngeal airway.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Evaluation of overall success rate of tracheal intubation through air-qILA and ease of insertion by comparing the number of attempts, time taken and maneuvers employed to accomplish a tracheal intubation using the conventional PVC tube (Group A) and Parker-Flex ETT (Group B)Timepoint: Outcome will be termed as successful after confirmation of successful ventilation by capnograph.—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. Systolic blood pressure , diastolic blood pressure, heart rate and SpO2 will be noted . The parameters will be recorded after induction, after device insertion, after intubation, at 1 min interval after tracheal intubation for 5 consecutive minutes. Thereafter it will be recorded every 5 min till 15 min.Timepoint: 1. Systolic blood pressure , diastolic blood pressure, heart rate and SpO2 will be noted . The parameters will be recorded after induction, after device insertion, after intubation, at 1 min interval after tracheal intubation,at 2min,3min,4min,5min,10min and 15min interval.—
