C-MAC videolaryngoscope (Karl Storz, Tuttlingen, GERMANY) with its Macintosh like blade is used with standard direct laryngoscopy technique. KingsVisionTM videolaryngoscopes (KingSystems, IN, USA) have also Macintosh like single use blades that are channeled, wider and shorter than conventional Macintosh blades.We aim to compare these two laryngoscopes and Macintosh laryngoscope during routine intubation in adult patients.

Treatment Groups

Study Objectives

One single intervention group is designated in this study

This study does not include a placebo group

Treatment Groups

Group I

Experimental

Patients will be intubated by an experienced anesthesiologists. Anesthesiologist first uses Macintosh laryngoscope then KingsVision videolaryngoscope and lastly C-MAC videolaryngoscope to intubate patients. Cormack-Lehane scores, the time from the start of laryngoscopy to visualization of the vocal cords and the time from the visualization of the vocals from the successful intubation will be recorded. The success of the intubation will be assessed with bilateral chest auscultation. If visualization of the vocal cords or placing of the endotracheal tube was not successful after 60 seconds with a particular laryngoscope, it will be left out and patient will be ventilated for 1 minutes and then pass to other laryngoscopes.
