Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To measure the time required to detect endotracheal tube placement by transtracheal ultrasonography and capnographyTimepoint: To measure the time required to detect endotracheal tube placement by by transtracheal ultrasonography and capnography | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To determine the reliability of transtracheal ultrasonography and capnography to detect the correct placement of endotracheal tube.Timepoint: The appearance of 6 squared waveforms of more than 4mm of Hg in capnography confirms the correct placement of endotracheal tube which is measured in second from the time of beginning of intubation till the capnographic confirmation. | — |
