Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary outcome of our study is Time taken for ETT placement(defined as time taken after the confirmation of tip of endotracheal tube in nasopharynx by C-MAC video laryngoscope to the appearance of three successive end tidal CO2 waveforms.Timepoint: Primary outcome of our study is Time taken for ETT placement(defined as time taken after the confirmation of tip of endotracheal tube in nasopharynx by C-MAC video laryngoscope to the appearance of three successive end tidal CO2 waveforms by the end of 1 minute, beyond one minute attempt is considered a failure.

Secondary
