0 inside or passing through the trachea (= the tube that carries air from the throat to the lungs):
An anesthesiologist inserts an endotracheal tube into the windpipe.
When an endotracheal tube tears the trachea, it typically does so at the posterior (back) membranous wall.
If the patient is neurologically impaired, a cuffed endotracheal tube inserted beforehand for airway protection.
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.
Is it also true that artificial respiration should have been given by means of a respirator and a cuffed endotracheal tube much earlier?
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.
Complications related to the pressor response to endotracheal intubation.
After delivery, an endotracheal tube was inserted for respiratory distress.
The operation was carried out under general anesthesia with the usual endotracheal intubation.
