Brief Summary   Airway management is a crucial skill for anaesthesiologist. Hence good practice and familiarity with variety of airway devices is essential for anaesthesiologist. In last few years a number of supraglottic devices have been introduced in clinical practice.These devices have changed the situation from ’unable to ventilate,unable to intubate’ to ’able to ventilate,able to intubate’.The Intubating Laryngeal Mask Airway(ILMA or LMA FASTRACH) was designed specifically to facilitate tracheal intubation while maintaining ventilation.The ILMA overcomes the diameter-length limitations for tracheal tube imposed by classic LMA and facilitates guidance of tracheal tube towards the glottis.A relatively new supraglottic airway device,the AIR-Q intubating laryngeal airway is an alternative to ILMA to facilitate endotracheal intubation. Flex tip Parker tube is non traumatic,less expensive and to the best of our knowledge there is no study comparing its use for intubation with ILMA and AIR-Q.So in this present study we plan to compare ILMA and AIR-Q for intubation using flex tip Parker tube.The study is a prospective randomised,single blinded,parallel group,single centre trial comparing the ILMA and AIR-Q for blind tracheal intubation using Parker flex tip tube in 110 patients of ASA Grade 1 or 2 undergoing elective surgical procedure under general anaesthesia at Pt B D Sharma PGIMS Rohtak.The primary outcome measure will be success rate of blind tracheal intubation.
