Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Brief Summary   We will be comparing midline and rotational  insertion techniques of air-Q immediately  using fiberoptic bronchoscopy.Parameters assessed include fiberoptic bronchoscopic grading of air-Q position,ease of insertion,time taken to insert, haemodyanmic changes during insertion and complications if any.
