Design outcomes

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. To compare the severity of post-intubation sore throat using POST score with both laryngoscopy technique. 2. To determine the correlation between the degree of intubation difficulty using specifically devised & validated TEAG (Tongue, Epiglottis, Arytenoid tubercles, Glottis) score (to be validated) based on Cormack-Lehane grade & POGO score. 3. To compare the secondary airway-related adverse outcomes between direct Mcintosh laryngoscope & video laryngoscope, using intubation difficulty scale (IDS) 4. To compare hemodynamic changes during laryngoscopy & endotracheal intubation (heart rate, blood pressure) Timepoint: Throat pain assessment using VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) at: Immediately after extubation (once patient is fully awake) 2 hours post-extubation 6 hours post-extubation 12 hours post-extubation 24 hours post-extubation—

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the severity of post operative throat pain (using a validated Visual Analogue Scale) following endotracheal intubation with direct Mcintosh laryngoscope versus video laryngoscope at multiple time points post-extubation (upto 24 hours)Timepoint: Throat pain assessment using VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) at: Immediately after extubation (once patient is fully awake) 2 hours post-extubation 6 hours post-extubation 12 hours post-extubation 24 hours post-extubation—
