Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| POGO score corresponds to the percentage of the glottis visualized during laryngoscopy. A 100% value denotes visualization of entire glottis from the anterior commissure of the vocal cords to the inter-arytenoid notch. If none of the glottic opening is visualized, then the value is stated as 0%. Percentage of view of the glottic opening between 0-100% will be noted according to the view obtained with VL in each group. Timepoint: The percentage of glottic opening (POGO) score shall be recorded, in supine head-flat position followed by each cm of head rise till 10 cm after induction of anaesthesia. | — |
