Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
1)Number of attempts and duration of instrumentation without any significant problems. Timepoint: 1)Number of attempts and duration of instrumentation without any significant problems. this is done at beginning of the study	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
1. Mean value of individual of the grades of laryngoscopic view based on number of attempts. 2. Ease of laryngoscopy between Senior Anaesthesiologist versus Junior Anaesthesiologist. 3. Any significant change in hemodynamic parameters between the groups. 4. Complication/Side effects in terms of sore throat or mild bleed if any.Timepoint: â?¢Mean Cormack Lehane(C/L) laryngoscopic grading at intubation at time 0 â?¢The number of attempts and total time duration of first successful laryngoscopy followed by intubation. time 0 â?¢The changes in the hemodynamic parameters are noted at the time of intubation and at an interval of 2 mins after intubation till 10mins upto the time until surgical incision â?¢Post-op follow up at 2, 4, 6, 12, 18, 24 hours for complication if any	—
