Summary

This completed study looked at 135 obese patients to see how different laryngoscopes (video vs. conventional) affect intubation difficulty and heart rate changes. The goal was to find which tool provides better airway visualization and fewer early complications like sore throat or nausea. The results could help guide safer airway management in obese patients.

Who is studied

The study population will consist of adult patients between the ages of 18 and 65 years with a body mass index (BMI) of ≥30 kg/m², classified as American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status I or II. All participants will be scheduled for elective surgery requiring general anesthesia and endotracheal intubation.
