Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1.To assess the predictability of Thyromental height for difficult visualisation of larynx 2.To assess the predictability of Sternomental distance for difficult visualisation of larynxTimepoint: At the time of direct laryngoscopy—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1.Predicatability of Thyro-mental distance and Sterno-mental distance when taken together for difficult visualisation of larynx in relation to Cormack Lehane Grading 2. Relationship between Thyro-mental height and Sterno-mental distance in predicting DVL. 3. Sensitivity,specificity, PPV and NPV will be calculated.Timepoint: After assessing thyro-mental height and sterno-mental distance at the time of direct laryngoscopy—
