Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Group I ( Air Q)
nsertion of proper size Air-Q. ILA

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
success rate of tracheal intubation through each device.
Time Frame: Within a maximum of 5 minutes to confirm success of tracheal intubation through each supraglottic airway devices
success rate of tracheal intubation through each device is defined as end tidal carbon dioxide confirmed placement of TT within a maximum of 5 min tracheal intubation time
Within a maximum of 5 minutes to confirm success of tracheal intubation through each supraglottic airway devices

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Insertion time of supraglottic airway devices
Time Frame: It is about 13-19 second for insertion of supraglottic airway devices
Time necessary for insertion was measured from the time the face mask was taken away until the appearance of Co2 on the capnograph while supraglottic airway device in place
It is about 13-19 second for insertion of supraglottic airway devices
