Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
time to intubationTimepoint: immediately after intubation

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. Number of attempts for successful intubation. 2.CL grade and POGO (Percentage of glottic opening) score. 3.Optimization manoeuvres needed for best glottic view 4.Difficult of using the device. (0-10) 5.Userâ??s preference between the two laryngoscopes. 6. Oropharyngeal morbidity: dental trauma, mucosal bleeding etc. 7. Time to glottic view Timepoint: number of attempts, time to glottic view, CL grade and optimisation manuvers ( 1,2,3,) will be recorded immediately after intubation in all patients. The difficulty in using device and user preference will be recorded after intubation. oropharyngeal morbidity will be assessed immediately after surgery and at 24 hours after surgery
