Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. To assess the success rate of proper position of ETT when the cuff of the ETT passes 2 cm below the vocal cords by using fibre-optic bronchoscopy and point of care Ultrasound. 2. Anthropometric patient factors influencing the tracheal length and its correlation with the measurement of fixation point of endotracheal tube, in our population.Timepoint: 1. To assess the success rate of proper position of ETT when the cuff of the ETT passes 2 cm below the vocal cords by using fibre-optic bronchoscopy and point of care Ultrasound. 2. Anthropometric patient factors influencing the tracheal length and its correlation with the measurement of fixation point of endotracheal tube, in our population. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1.To assess the safe position of endotracheal tube in relation to carina. 2. To measure the airway distances i.e. total airway length (lip to carina), tracheal length (vocal cord - carina). Timepoint: during the preanaesthetic assessment and intubation | — |
