Novel Device to Assess Endotracheal Tube Migration

The Cleveland Clinic42 enrolled

Overview

To evaluate the ability of the SonarMed AirWave to provide clinicians with information that enables them to confirm continuous proper placement of the endotracheal tube. This initial study is prospective, observational, looking at CXR results, and comparing those to AirWave system output data.
