Digital palpation of endotracheal tube tip as a method of confirming endotracheal tube position in neonates: an open‐label, three‐armed randomized controlled trial
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To compare the malposition rates of endotracheal tubes (ETTs) when the insertional length (IL) is determined by a weight-based nomogram versus when IL is determined by palpation of the ETT tip.
DESIGN: Open-label, randomized controlled trial (RCT).
