Use of ultrasonography in confirmation of endotracheal tube position
Methods This study was conducted on 100 patients who were admitted to Critical Care Medicine Department in Alexandria Main University Hospital with an indication of endotracheal tube placement. All patients were examined by ultrasonography “linear probe” after endotracheal tube insertion. Results were compared with capnometric readings (end tidal CO2). After confirmation of endotracheal tube po...
متن کاملUltrasonographic Confirmation of Endotracheal Tube Position in Neonates.
OBJECTIVE To compare endotracheal tube tip-to-carina distance obtained by ultrasonography vs. that obtained by chest X-ray in neonates. METHODS After endotracheal intubation of 40 neonates, chest X-ray and, within one hour, ultrasonography was obtained for each patient for measurement of endotracheal tube tip-to-carina distance. RESULTS Means of endotracheal tube tip-to-carina distances wer...

OBJECTIVE To compare ultrasonography with chest radiograph to detect the level of endotracheal tube tip in intubated neonates. DESIGN Observational. SETTING Neonatal care unit of a teaching hospital. PARTICIPANTS 53 neonates selected by convenience sampling. INTERVENTION Ultrasonography of chest was done with probe of 5 to 8 MHz using high parasternal view. The distance of the endotrach...

متن کاملPrediction of pediatric endotracheal tube size by ultrasonography.
BACKGROUND Formulas based on age and height often fail to reliably predict the proper endotracheal tube (ETT) size in pediatric patients. We, thus, tested the hypothesis that subglottic diameter, as determined by ultrasonography, better predicts optimal ETT size than existing methods. METHODS A total of 192 patients, aged 1 month to 6 yr, who were scheduled for surgery and undergoing general ...
