Brief Summary  

 This study looks at two different ways to check if a breathing tube is correctly placed in patients who are lying on their side during surgery or emergency care. One method uses a video laryngoscope, which is a small camera that helps doctors see the throat clearly, and the other uses an ultrasound device at the bedside. The goal is to find out which method is more accurate and effective for confirming the correct placement of the breathing tube.
