Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To assess ease of passage by observing and comparing the incidence of impingement of the polyvinyl chloride tube and the flexometallic tube at the glottis using flexible bronchoscopeTimepoint: At the end of complete sample collection

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. Site of impingement of tube, if any. 2. The number of manoeuvres required to advance the endotracheal tube through the glottis. 3. The time taken to railroad the endotracheal tube over the flexible bronchoscope into the tracheaTimepoint: At the time of intubation
