Summary

The aim of this study is to compare the ultrasound-guidance versus auscultation to confirm optimal insertion depth of the cuffless oral Ring-Adair-Elwyn (RAE) endotracheal tube in pediatric patients undergoing general anesthesia.

Conditions

• Intubation Complication
• Child
• Ultrasonography

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
BEHAVIORAL	Ultrasound-guided determination of cuffless RAE tube depth	1. Measurement of "Carina-T2 mid-vertebra length" from preoperative Cheat PA 2. Ultrasound-guided detection of endobronchial intubation depth by loss of lung sliding sign in the left lung field. 3. Withdrawal of the cuffless RAE tube using the "Carina-T2 mid-vertebra length" for optimal positioning
BEHAVIORAL	Auscultation-guided determination of cuffless RAE tube depth	1. Measurement of "Carina-T2 mid-vertebra length" from preoperative Cheat PA 2. Auscultation-guided detection of endobronchial intubation depth by loss of breathing sound in the left lung field 3. Withdrawal of the cuffless RAE tube using the "Carina-T2 mid-vertebra length" for optimal positioning
