Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To test the validity (Sensitivity, Specificity, Positive predictive value, Negative predictive value) of Acromio axillo suprasternal notch Index and Modified mallampati test in predicting “Difficult visualization of larynx ?.Timepoint: In pre anaesthetic clinic predictors will be assessed. In operation theatre direct laryngoscopy will be done to assess difficult visualisation of larynx. After one year of study, validity will be assessed statistically.—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Correlation of Mallampati grading & acromio axillo suprasternal notch index with Cormack Lehane grading.Timepoint: Cormack Lehane grading will be assessed at the time of direct laryngoscopy. Correlation will be assessed statistically after one year of study.—
