Paediatric Airway
Conditions
Brief summary
This study compares the time taken to intubate between Cmac video laryngoscopy with Glidescope video laryngoscopy in paediatric patients aged 3-12 years old.
Detailed description
This study aims to determine whether are both devices comparable to each other in terms of intubation time and Cormack Lehane view in paediatric patients with normal airway undergoing elective surgery.
