Use of Ultrasound to Confirm the Position of the Cuff of the Endotracheal Tube in Relation to the Cricoid in the Pediatric Population During General Anesthesia.
Anatomically, the infra-glottic area (subglottis) and the cricoid ring are the narrowest part of the larynx. In order to limit the incidence of damage related to mucosal pressure injuries from the presence of an endotracheal tube (ETT), the cuff of the ETT should lie below the cricoid in children. Previously, …
