Background
An optimal endotracheal tube curve can be a key factor in successful intubation using the GlideScope videolaryngoscope.
Aims
This study aimed to evaluate the effects of tube tip‐modified stylet curve on the intubation time in children.
Methods
Children aged 1‐5 years were randomly assigned to either the standard curve (group S, n = 60) or tip‐modified curve (group T, n = 60) groups...
Background
Optimal positioning of endotracheal tubes (ETTs) decreases the risk of accidental extubation or endobronchial intubation. This study evaluated the usefulness of external anatomical landmarks as practical references for determining an insertion depth of an ETT in pediatric patients.
Methods
Computed tomography images of the necks of 183 pediatric patients (≤16 years of age) were reviewed...
