Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Channelled King Vision video laryngoscope  Random allocation into Group KV (intubation using Channelled King Vision video laryngoscope) will be done by computer generated random numbers. Multi-parameter monitor with electrocardiogram (ECG), non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP), pulse oximetry (SpO2) and ETCO2 monitor will be attached to the patients. All patients will be unvaryingly pre-medicated intravenously 10 minutes before induction. Preoxygenation will be done with 100% oxygen for 5 minutes. Pre-induction vitals, which include Heart rate (HR), Systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP) and Oxygen saturation (SpO2) will be noted. Induction will be done and muscle relaxant will be given to facilitate the intubation. Post induction (i.e., pre–laryngoscopy) vitals will be noted. An anaesthesiologist having good experience with Channelled King Vision Video laryngoscope will be performing the intubation. In head neutral position the tube will be inserted into the glottis for intubation. Proper placement of tube in the trachea will be confirmed by the presence of carbon dioxide in the exhaled breath for three consecutive times via capnography. Endotracheal tube will be fixed after confirming equal air entry in both the lungs. Hemodynamic monitoring which includes HR, SBP, DBP, MAP, SPO2 will be recorded immediately after intubation (T0) and for 10 minutes after intubation at intervals of 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 minutes after intubation.  
Intervention  The TAScope (The Anesthetist Society) video laryngoscope   Random allocation into Group TV (intubation done using TAScope) will be done by computer generated random numbers. Multi-parameter monitor with electrocardiogram (ECG), non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP), pulse oximetry (SpO2) and ETCO2 monitor will be attached to the patients. All patients will be unvaryingly given pre-medications 10 minutes before induction. Preoxygenation will be done with 100% oxygen for 5 minutes. Pre-induction vitals like Heart rate (HR), Systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP) and Oxygen saturation (SpO2) will be noted. Patient will be induced and muscle relaxant will be given to facilitate the intubation. Post induction (i.e., pre–laryngoscopy) vitals will be noted. An anaesthesiologist having good experience with TAScope will be performing the intubation. Patient will be positioned in head neutral position. After obtaining adequate view of larynx using TAScope, bougie will inserted via the vocal cords onto which the tube tip will be rail-roaded under vision. The bougie will then be taken out. Proper placement of tube in the trachea will be confirmed by the presence of carbon dioxide in the exhaled breath for three consecutive times via capnography. Endotracheal tube will be fixed after confirming equal air entry in both the lungs. Hemodynamic monitoring which includes HR, SBP, DBP, MAP, SPO2 will be recorded immediately after intubation (T0) and for 10 minutes after intubation, at intervals of 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 minutes after intubation.

Brief Summary  

Endotracheal intubation with difficult airway has always been a challenge in clinical practice. Although the direct laryngoscope has been the most commonly used, it has its limitations when comes to difficult airway. With new advances in technology, intubation using video laryngoscope has been gaining popularity in difficult airway management as it reduces the incidence of failed intubations and provides more hemodynamic stability.

This study intends to compare two of the different airway gadgets, namely Channelled King Vision video laryngoscope (KV) and the novice TAS (The Anesthetist Society) scope (TV). 

      The King Vision video laryngoscope is portable and easy to use, providing an indirect view of the glottis. It consists of a reusable display and two blade designs- channelled and standard blade.

The TAScope is a channelled, anatomically angulated video intubation aid with an endoscopic camera that can be connected to a mobile device. It is cost effective compared to other modern video laryngoscopes, making it handy in a limited resource setting. Thus the need of more sophisticated and complex airway instruments that are cumbersome to use and expensive can be reduced to a particular extent with the increase in use of cost effective TAScope.

Since there is paucity of literature regarding comparison of these two devices, we intend to undertake this study to compare their efficacy.
