During Intubation the following parameters were recorded - total time taken for intubation, number of attempts taken for intubation, changes in the hemodynamic parameters, any special manuveure if used and any errors incountered. A Prospective observational randomised comparative study was done, appropriate tests were applied and results were obtained. <strong>Results: </strong>Study shows that the C-MAC video laryngoscope is associated with high success rates and shorter intubation times compared to the Intubating Laryngeal Mask Airway (ILMA) specifically, in obese patients. <strong>Conclusion: </strong>The study's findings indicate that “the C-MAC video laryngoscope is a better option for intubation in obese patients as compared to Intubating Laryngeal Mask Airway.</p> 2024-09-17T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) 2024 Author
