ABSTRACT
Objective:
To compare ultrasonography with chest radiograph to detect the level of endotracheal tube tip in intubated neonates.Design:
Observational.Setting:
Neonatal care unit of a teaching hospital.Participants:
53 neonates selected by convenience sampling. Intervention Ultrasonography of chest was done with probe of 5 to 8 MHz using high parasternal view. The distance of the endotracheal tube tip to the arch of aorta on ultrasonography was compared with level of endotracheal tube tip in radiograph. PrimaryOutcome:
Distance of endotracheal tube tip from the upper border of the arch of aorta on ultrasonography.Results:
Endotracheal tube tip was visualised on ultrasonography within 0.5 - 1.0 cm distance from upper border of arch of aorta in 48 out of 53 neonates. This corresponded with the normal position of endotracheal tip in radiograph at T2 to T3. In 5 neonates, endotracheal tube tip was not visualized on ultrasonography and in all these newborns it was at higher level in radiograph.Conclusions:
Distance of endotracheal tip to arch of aorta as measured on ultrasonography is helpful in early identification of the level of endotracheal tube tip.
