Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
To compare in two groups 1. Time for intubation [ Time from first entrance of endotracheal tube into oral cavity to the appearance of first etco2 curveTimepoint: 1 minute	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Usage of Airway accessories / additional maneuver ,like manipulation of blade , backward upward right ward pressure maneuver [ BURP] ,stylet, bougie, any assisted technologies , maneuver of endotracheal tube I.e manipulating to right & left 2.Incidence of impingement of tube on arytenoids / aryepiglottic fold 3. Hemodynamic stress response during laryngoscopy & intubation 4, Trauma [ bleeding ,injury] to Airway while intubatingTimepoint: 30 minutes	—
