Patients not consenting, less than 18 years, with anticipated difficult mask ventilation or need for rapid sequence induction were excluded. Following routine anesthetic induction, laryngoscopy was attempted by an experienced anesthesiologist using Macintosh scope. If the view obtained was Cormack and Lehane (CL) view IIB and above or the attempt at intubation using DLT failed despite a CL I\/IIA view, the patient was included in the trial. The laryngoscope was removed and after ensuring adequate oxygenation and depth of anesthesia, intubation was attempted using McGrath\u00ae MAC VL. The percentage of glottis opening (POGO) score was noted for both the scopes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      DLT insertion was attempted in 76 patients in the study period. Eight patients were included in the trial on account of limited glottis view\/failure with Macintosh scope. Insertion of DLT with McGrath MAC was tried only in six patients, in two patients, the VL was not available for use. The mean (standard deviation) POGO score with Macintosh scope was 9 (\u00b120), which significantly improved with the use of VL to 71 (\u00b124),\n                      <jats:italic
