Prevention
In control group intubations are done using direct laryngoscopy in which rigid laryngoscope is used to expose the laryngeal inlet under direct vision to facilitate intubation.
in intervention group intubations are done using video laryngoscope. Video laryngoscope utilizes video camera technology to visualize airway structures and facilitate endotracheal intubation.
