Background and aims Endotracheal intubation is a crucial skill in anesthesia. Uncuffed pediatric endotracheal tube (ETT) size can be calculated by various methods like age-based formula or by using ultrasound to measure minimal transvers... E Mahran,S Adlan - Ain-Shams Journal of Anesthesiology ...
Aim: This study was aimed to proof that selecting ETT size using ultrasound measurement of subglottic diameter is a reliable method and lead to less frequency of changing tube size than age-based formula especially in older children Materials and Methods: 60 children aged between...
They have a 17mm intubation depth mark at the distal end. The tube has distance markings every 0.5cm for tubes of size 2.0 to 3.5; distance markings every cm from 9 to 21cm for tubes of size 4.0 and 4.5; distance marking every cm from 13 to 21cm for tubes of size 5.0 and distance ...
The flight crew performed 49 (33%) intubations, and EMS staff performed seven (5%). Three children were nasally intubated. Significant variation occurred in medications used, endotracheal tube size and position, and nasogratric decompression. No single group performed better or worse than the ...
The accuracy of the ultrasound measured transverse cricoid diameter and the epiphyseal transverse diameter of the distal radius in predicting the pediatric endotracheal tube size AbdelGhaffar, Hala SaadThabet, Omnia HusseinAbbas, Yara HamdyElhagagy, Noha Yahia MohammdAbedalmohsen, Abualauon Mohamed ...

Ultrasonographic assessment of the subglottic diameter at the cricoid region is a better tool in predicting the appropriate size uncuffed ETT than modified Cole's formula. 展开 关键词: Cricoid cartilage intubation vocal cords DOI: 10.4103/joacp.JOACP_232_16 年份: 2017 ...
or mode of endotracheal intubation, proper position, airway patency, and correct endotracheal tube size must be confirmed as soon as the child arrives in the trauma center or emergency department.30Table 39-2lists the appropriate size by specific age category for critical resuscitation equipment that...
Pediatric intubation requires certain unique set of additional skills compared to intubating adults. The challenges of successfully intubation of a child increases as the age and size of the child decrease and are compounded when airway difficulties arise for various reasons. Often in the rural setting...
Objective:To observe the feasibility and safety in intubation of pediatric patients for endotracheal tube choice by the formula of ID(mm)=ages/4+3.5.Methods:Twenty pediatric patients scheduled for surgery by general anesthesia(GA)were recruited and undergone endotracheal tube selection by the formula ...
