Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To measure the Percentage of glottic opening (POGO) score 1)on conventional laryngoscopy 2) on guided bimanual laryngoscopy with assistant assisting from left side with left hand 3)and on continued guided bimanual laryngoscopy with another assistant assisting from right side with right hand. The steps 2 and 3 are randomised 4)count the number of attempts for intubationTimepoint: Three time points,once during laryngoscopy and during modified external laryngeal manipulation twice—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
