Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Patients with the understated criteria were excluded out of the study 1. Age 60 years, non-consenting, patients 2. Deranged coagulation profile or platelet counts 3.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The ease and efficacy of placement was evaluated on a.No. of attempts b.Time for successful insertion max 2 mins i.Time of insertion measured with Casio HS80TW1DF S055 stopwatch 1000th second accuracy ii.Start of timer defined as operator picking up the prelubricated SAD iii.End of measurement was defined as bilateral chest rise and square wave capnograph trace. It will be followed by auscultation of trachea for leaks c.Additional manoeuvres required d.User rated ease of insertion 0to10Timepoint: Only once after induction of anesthesia before skin incision | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Perioperative complications a. Incidents of laryngeal spasm (if seen or absent) b. Incidents of laryngeal injury (assessed by presence of blood staining on the SAD) c. Incidents of aspiration (assessed by a binary 0 or 1 scoring system on presence or absence of food staining on the SAD)Timepoint: At induction & at extubation;Postoperative laryngopharyngeal morbidity (after 24 hours of surgery) a) Soreness/pain in throat (assessed using Visual Analogue Pain Scale b) Difficulty in swallowing (assessed using a binary 0 or 1 scoring for presence or absence) c) Difficulty in speaking (assessed using a binary 0 or 1 scoring for presence or absence)Timepoint: 24 hours after extubation | — |
