About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to know which type of laryngoscope is better for Double Lumen Tube (DLT) insertion, in participants undergoing elective thoracic surgeries.

The main question aim to answer is Is C-MAC blade D video laryngoscope better than Macintosh laryngoscope for DLT insertion in term of time taking for intubation and hemodynamic changes to laryngoscopy? Researchers are comparing two groups of participants

* Participants in Group A are receiving intubation from C-MAC blade D video laryngoscope. * Participants in Group B are receiving intubations from Macintosh laryngoscope.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Time for intubation

1st outcome is time for intubation time for intubation will be noted during intubation of Double Lumen Tube. Time start from introduction of laryngoscope blade till three complete capnograph cycles.

Time frame
During induction of anesthesia, It will take 10 to 15 minutes
2

Heart Rate changes to laryngoscopy

Heart Rate of a patient will be noted before induction of Anaesthesia as baseline heart rate and will be labelled as 0. Then at 1 minute, at 3 minutes and at 5 minutes after intubation, and labelled as 1 ,3 \& 5.

Time frame
From enrollment till completion it will take approximately 24 hours
3

Blood pressure changes to laryngoscopy

Changes of blood pressure to laryngoscopy as Systolic Blood Pressure (SBP), Diastolic Blood Pressure (DPB) and Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) will be noted before induction of anesthesia as baseline and labelled as 0. Then at 1 minute, 3 minutes and 5 minutes after intubation and labelled as 1, 3 and 5.

Time frame
Time from enrolment to completion will be 24 hours
