Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Ratio of successful nasotracheal intubation by FB compared to videolaryngoscopic nasotracheal intubationTimepoint: following induction of general anesthesia—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. Time requirement for the successful intubation 2. Number of attempts required for successful intubation 3. Requirement of manoeuvres like jaw thrust, tongue traction, neck extension or backward, upward, and posterior pressure (BURP) on the larynx. 4. Type of complications ââ?¬â?? trauma, bleeding. 5. Difficulty in visualization of the airway due to airway collapse. 6. Mechanical obstruction during the passage of the endotracheal tube into the trachea. 7. Use of additional airway instruments to aid endotracheal intubation. 8. Hemodynamic parameters (heart rate and blood pressure) at baseline prior to the induction of anesthesia, pre-intubation, and post-intubation. Timepoint: following induction of general anesthesia—
