Brief Summary  

 CMAC video laryngoscope has the design and technique of use similar to Macintosh direct laryngoscope and training required is also similar. By increasing the first intubation success rate it may reduce the complications associated with repeated and failed intubation. Currently the evidences to show the superiority of video laryngoscope over direct laryngoscope at operation rooms by anesthesiology trainee are limited CMAC video laryngoscope has the design and technique of use similar to Macintosh direct laryngoscope and training required is also similar. By increasing the first intubation success rate it may reduce the complications associated with repeated and failed intubation. Currently the evidences to show the superiority of video laryngoscope over direct laryngoscope at operation rooms by anesthesiology trainee are limited

In this project after taking informed consent and getting examined by the anaesthesiologist , pateints will be randomly divided into two groups , group one will be intubated with Macintosh direct laryngoscope and group two with C-MAC video based laryngoscope.

two groups will be divided by serially numbered sealed, opaque envelopes.  An anaesthesia trainee doctor will perform laryngoscopy (a procedure to see your voice box by inserting a laryngoscope) and subsequently insert an artificial tube through the voice box and into the airway tube. Once the position of the artificial tube is checked, artificial ventilation will be commenced by connecting the tube to the ventilator.
