Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the larngoscopic vision of vocal cord in ramp position and conventional sniffing position during endotracheal intubation by assessing Modified Cormack Lehane scale.Timepoint: Starting from patient positioning for endotracheal intubation till 5 minutes after completion of endotracheal intubation.—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To assess the ease of intubation by need for use of external laryngeal maneuvre & airway adjunct devices To assess the association between Modified Cormack Lehane grading, Mallampatti score & neck circumference in deciding the difficulty in intubation.Timepoint: Starting from patient positioning for intubation till 5 minutes after completion of endotracheal intubation.—
