    Device

    In this group, endotracheal intubation will be done through a video laryngoscope

  • Endotracheal Intubation through a Direct Laryngoscope (DL)

    Device

    In this group, endotracheal intubation will be done through a direct laryngoscope

Treatment groups

124 Participants
are divided into 2 treatment groups
Group A: Video Laryngoscope (VL)Experimental treatment 1 intervention
Group B: Direct Laryngoscope (DL)Active comparator 1 intervention

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Heart rate

Heart rate will be monitored through a 3-lead ECG monitor

Time frame
Perioperative
2

Systolic Blood Pressure

Systolic Blood Pressure will be monitored via a non-invasive blood pressure monitor with an appropriate BP cuff attached to any arm of the patient.

Time frame
Perioperative
3

Diastolic Blood Pressure

Diastolic blood pressure will be monitored via a non-invasive blood pressure monitor with an appropriate BP cuff attached to any arm of the patient.

Time frame
Perioperative
4

Mean Blood Pressure

Mean blood pressure will be monitored via a non-invasive blood pressure monitor with an appropriate BP cuff attached to any arm of the patient.

Time frame
Perioperative

Secondary outcomes

1

Duration of Laryngoscopy

The time taken to perform endotracheal intubation will also be noted for both direct laryngoscopy and video laryngoscopy. This involves measuring the interval from when the laryngoscope blade is inserted into the patient's mouth to the detection of the first capnography wave, while simultaneously using the timer to monitor vital parameters.

Time frame
Perioperative
