Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To determine whether the Endotracheal tube(ETT) cuff ballotability over the suprasternal notch accurately predicts the correct placement of ETT.Timepoint: single time, with the data collected after the induction of General Anesthesia in all subjects.—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To find the Positive Value of the Presence of endotracheal tube cuff ballotability above the Suprasternal notch for correct positioning of the ETT.Timepoint: 1;To find the sensitivity and specificity of cuff ballotability for correct positioning of ETT.Timepoint: Single time, done with the data collected after induction of general anesthesia in patients.—
