Official Title: Conventional Direct Laryngoscopy Vs. Video Laryngoscopy With The C-MAC For Pyloromyotomy

Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to compare two different ways of placing breathing tubes for surgery. Both ways are used currently to place breathing tubes and are safe and effective. This study seeks to determine if one way is better than the other for infants with pyloric stenosis.

Detailed Summary: Specific aims of this study include determining if there is a difference in the desaturation rates of the two different intubation techniques- Direct Laryngoscopy and the C-MAC video laryngoscope. Also is there a difference in intubation success between the two techniques, does intubation success vary with different training levels, and does desaturation rate differ among training levels.
