Examples of endotracheal

• The patient developed major respiratory problems with retention of carbon dioxide despite endotracheal intubation and treatment with diuretics and digoxin.

• Endotracheal intubation was performed because of retraction of the chest and bradycardia.

• A normal cardiac rhythm and output was established after administration of adrenaline via an endotracheal tube.

• Anesthetic induction, endotracheal intubation, and arterial and venous access were obtained in the standard fashion.

• During transfer, he became increasingly difficult to ventilate, despite repositioning of the endotracheal tube.

• In most of the animals, an endotracheal tube was placed in order to facilitate respiration.

• After delivery, an endotracheal tube was inserted and the neonate was placed on a high-frequency oscillating ventilator because of respiratory distress.

• The operation was carried out under general anesthesia with the usual endotracheal intubation.

• After delivery, an endotracheal tube was inserted for respiratory distress.

• Complications related to the pressor response to endotracheal intubation.

• The younger patient was not tested for influenza and the older patient had negative viral cultures of an endotracheal aspirate and negative acute serology for influenza.

• Is it also true that artificial respiration should have been given by means of a respirator and a cuffed endotracheal tube much earlier?

• The appropriate length for the endotracheal tube can be estimated by doubling the distance from the corner of the child's mouth to the ear canal.

• If the patient is neurologically impaired, a cuffed endotracheal tube inserted beforehand for airway protection.

• When an endotracheal tube tears the trachea, it typically does so at the posterior (back) membranous wall.
