Brief Summary  

Aim

To compare  Thyromental height and Ultrasound  measurement of  skin to  epiglottis distance  as predictors  of difficult laryngoscopy.

Primary objective

To compare  Thyromental height and Ultrasound  measurement of  skin to  epiglottis distance  as predictors  of difficult laryngoscopy  in adult patients undergoing elective surgery under general anaesthesia.

Secondary objective

 1)To compare TMHT with thyromental distance (TMD) and Modified Mallampati 

  classification ( MMC)

 2) To compare ultrasound measurement of DSE with thyromental distance (TMD) and     Modified  Mallampati  classification ( MMC)

 3)To compare the ease of measurement of thyromental height and ultrasound measurement of  DSE  by likert scale
