Overview
Brief Summary
Lung Ultrasonography (US) has been shown to be effective for verifying endotracheal tube (ETT) position in adults and children but has been less studied in neonates. The aim of this study is to evaluate the performance of lung US in determining correct ETT position in neonates, in comparison with X Ray

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Concordance of ETT positioning according to lung ultrasonography with chest X ray results
Time Frame: Day 0
X Ray correct ETT position : ETT's tip will be correctly positioned if located between the upper edge of the first thoracic vertebra and the lower edge of the second thoracic vertebra. Ultrasound correct ETT position : ETT'S tip will be correctly positioned if the distance between ETT's tip and the junction of the brachycephalic artery with aortic arch will be measured between 0.8 and 1.5 centimeter
Secondary Outcomes
- variability inter observator(Day 0)
- time of realization lung US(Day 0)
- time of realization chest X ray(Day 0)
