Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
we will assess upper lip bite test and grade it accordingly and do usg guided vocal cord thickness . will compare both of this to come to a conclusion pre operatively if whether the intubation will be diffiult or not and then intraoperatively will grade it with cormack lahene. by doing so we can assess pre operatively whether the case requires any additional diffuclt intubation settings or preparation to be done.Timepoint: 1 year and 6 months

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To find the correlation between upper lip bite test & ultrasound guided airway assessment with 1. Cormack lehane grading 2. Number of intubation attempts 3. Any modifications required at the time of intubation 4. Failed intubationsTimepoint: will assess at the time of intubation that is intraoperatively during the case.
