Primary outcome: is time taken for intubation.

Secondary outcomes:

* The success rate of first intubation trial. * Hypoxia, Spo2 < 90%. * Airway trauma like; dental and lip injury.

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. time taken for intubation

    Time frame: periprocedural (less than 60 seconds)

    the time for the laryngoscope to pass level of incisors till confirmation of tracheal intubation by capnography

Secondary outcomes

  1. - The success rate of first intubation trial.

    Time frame: through study completion (about 8 months)

    Number of intubation attempts (an intubation attempt will be deemed failed if desaturation occurs Spo2 <90 % or intubation failed in <60 seconds). Intubations will be deemed failures after 3 intubation attempts.
