Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Incidence of oxygen desaturation in each groupTimepoint: The Oxygen Saturation is noted from the time of shifting to operation theatre, after pre oxygenation and till the end of the surgery. The time points when there is change in saturation are noted.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. Desaturation levels of the patien 2.EtCO2 through sampling tube in mouth 3. Need for additional manoeuvres like moderate head tilt, chin lift, jaw thrust, 4.Insertion of oral airways, iGEL insertion, endotracheal intubation 5. Hemodynamic variables (BP, Heart Rate)Timepoint: From the time of shifting to operation theatre After pre oxygenation & till the end of the surgery The time points when there is change in saturation or EtCO2 or Blood pressure & heart rate are noted
