Not Applicable
Completed
- Conditions
- Pediatric General Anesthesia With Endotracheal Tube
- Interventions
- Diagnostic Test: Ultrasound
- Registration Number
- NCT02321956
- Lead Sponsor
- Siriraj Hospital
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether ultrasound study of the airway to predict endotracheal tube size in anesthetized pediatric patients better than the tube size formula
- Detailed Description
This study is to compare the methods of selecting uncuffed endotracheal tube size in pediatric patients between conventional age-based formula and ultrasound measurement of subglottic diameter.
