Role of Neutrophil Activation

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Patients Requiring Endotracheal Intubation

• Registration Number: NCT01815229
• Lead Sponsor: Washington University School of Medicine

Brief Summary

Patients will undergo placement of an endotracheal tube (ETT) as standard of care. Tracheal lavage will be conducted using 5 mL of sterile saline solution by a push/suction technique. Specimen samples obtained by wall suction will be collected at 2 time points following intubation.

Blood samples will be obtained at 2 time points, simultaneous with the collection of the tracheal specimens.
