Prediction of the mid-tracheal level using surface anatomical landmarks in adults: Clinical implication of endotracheal tube insertion depth

Endotracheal tube (ETT) should be placed at the optimal level to avoid single lung ventilation or accidental extubation. This study was performed to estimate the mid-tracheal level by using surface anatomical landmarks in adult patients. Neck computed tomography images of 329 adult patients between...
