Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Awake naso-tracheal intubation with Flexible Bronchoscope  Awake naso-tracheal intubation will be done with Flexible Bronchoscope. With endotracheal tube loaded over the bronchoscope, it is introduced from one nostril. under vision of camera, visualize the carina. After visualizing carina, loaded ET will slide over the bronchoscope to the trachea and tube is positioned 5 tracheal rings above the carina, the cuff will be inflated and scope is withdrawn. Total duration of intubation will be measured. 
Intervention  King vision video laryngoscope  Awake naso-tracheal intubation will be done with King Vision Video laryngoscope. Before the insertion of the endotracheal tube, distance from tragus to alae of the nose will be measure and introduce the endotracheal tube from nostril up to that distance. Now, video laryngoscope is advanced from the centre of the tongue towards glottis by viewing on the screen of the monitor so that it will barely lift the epiglottis with the tip of the blade. After we can see the vocal cords in the centre of the video laryngoscope display, advance the ET tube slowly and watch for the tip of the endotracheal tube. If the endotracheal tube is not towards glottis, then inflate the cuff of the endotracheal tube with appropriate amount of air till tube tip will align with glottic opening. Once the tip of the endotracheal tube reaches up to the vocal cords, deflates the cuff and advance the tube further. Once tube insertion and cuff disappearance through vocal cords is confirmed, stabilize the ET tube and remove the Video laryngoscope from the mouth. Total duration of intubation will be measured

Brief Summary   The aim of our study is to compare video laryngoscope and flexible bronchoscope for awake naso-tracheal intubation in anticipated difficult airway.60 patients belonging to the age group 18 to 70 years with ASA I,II or III are randomly selected into two groups. In Group VL, awake intubation will be done with King Vision video laryngoscope and in Group FB, awake intubation will be done with Flexible Bronchoscope after giving airway block in both the groups. The primary objective is to compare total duration of intubation in both the groups. Number of attempts, Cough  Score, Comfort Score and vital parameters are also noted among the two groups. The proposed advantage of our study is that video laryngoscope guided awake naso-tracheal intubation might be more convenient and less time consuming in anticipated difficult airway patients.
