Clinical Trial Summary

Chest radiography is the gold standard for confirming tracheal intubation. Bedside ultrasound can be a useful alternative. The investigators are conducting a multi-center, observational study from January 2019 to May 2020 (COVID-US Study) to determine the feasibility of tracheal and lung ultrasound in confirming endotracheal tube placement in the critically ill.


Clinical Trial Description

Endotracheal intubation is an important aspect of managing critically ill patients. Chest radiography remains the gold standard for confirming endotracheal tube positioning, however, ultrasonography can be a useful alternative. The objective of this study is to determine the feasibility of a combination of tracheal and thoracic ultrasonography to confirm adequate positioning of endotracheal tube placement in a cohort of critically ill participants including those with novel coronavirus-2019. ;
