Outcome  TimePoints 
Usefulness of ultrasound versus auscultation in confirming correct Ryles tube placement.  One minute after Ryles tube insertion 
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Time taken for confirmation with both techniques and ease of confirmation in overweight and obese patients.  Soon after Ryles tube insertion time taken will be recorded.

Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

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

Brief Summary   Patients who require Ryles tube insertion during surgery will be recruited. One group will form patients with a BMI of <25 and other group will be formed by patients with BMI >25. Accuracy of Ryles tube insertion and time taken for confirming correct placement by auscultation and by using ultrasound will be noted in both normal and overweight and obese patients. This study will be initiated as a pilot study with 10 patients in each group.
