Overview

Brief Summary

To compare the performance of ultrasound in detecting subglottic secretion above the ETT tube cuff in comparison to computed tomography (CT) scan.

Detailed Description

Airway ultrasound will be performed at the bedside prior to CT scan in all intubated patients who fulfiled the criteria. The image of subglottic secretion was then compared to the plain CT cervical. The findings of the CT was examined by a radiologist.
