📋 Eligibility rules (as published)
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Classified as ASA I-II, indicating a relatively low risk of complications from anesthesia 2. Aged between 18 and 60 years, which represents a typical adult surgical population 3. Both male and female patients, ensuring gender inclusivity and representation in the study findings Exclusion Criteria: 1. Existing sore throat prior to surgery, which could affect the baseline measurement of postoperative sore throat. 2. Anticipation of a difficult airway, as these patients may require specialized intubation techniques that are not standardized across the study. 3. More than two attempts at endotracheal tube (ETT) insertion, as multiple attempts could cause additional trauma and skew the study outcomes. 4. Any trauma occurring during intubation, which could independently contribute to postoperative sore throat and other complications
