Assessing the accuracy of ultrasound measurements of tracheal diameter: an in vitro experimental study
Abstract Background Recent studies indicate that ultrasound can detect changes in tracheal diameter during endotracheal tube (ETT) cuff inflation. We sought to assess the accuracy of ultrasound measurement of tracheal diameter, and to determine the relationship between tracheal wall pressure (TWP),...
