Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Time to successful intubation facilitated by the bougie vs the ET with stylet using video-laryngoscopeTimepoint: Baseline, at neutral position. point of insertion of the ETI through the glottis aperture.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
First attempt successful intubation, overall success rate of ETI, Cervical spine motion using fluoroscopy, CL grade and rate of complications in the form of desaturation, bleeding, broken teeth, trachea-bronchial perforation, pneumothorax, vocal cord injury would be assessed as secondary outcomesTimepoint: Baseline, at neutral position. point of insertion of the ETI through the glottis aperture.
