Abstract:
Rationale Endotracheal tube (ETT) malposition is common and an increasing number of non-invasive techniques to aid rapid identification of tube position are available. Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is advocated as a tool to monitor ventilation. Objective This study aimed to compare EIT with five other non-invasive techniques for identifying ETT position in a piglet model. Methodology Six saline lavage surfactant-depleted piglets were studied. Periods of ventilation with ETT placed in the oesophagus or a main bronchus (MB) were compared with an appropriately placed mid-tracheal ETT. Colorimetric end-tidal CO2 (Pedi-Cap (R)), SpO2 and heart rate, tidal volume (${\rm V}_{{\rm T}_{{\rm ao}} } $) using a hot-wire anemometer at the airway opening, tidal volume using respiratory inductive plethysmography (${\rm V}_{{\rm T}_{{\rm RIP}} } $) and regional tidal ventilation within each hemithorax (EIT) were measured. Results Oesophageal ventilation: Pedi-Cap (R) demonstrated absence of color change. ${\rm V}_{{\rm T}_{{\rm ao}} } $, ${\rm V}_{{\rm T}_{{\rm RIP}} } $, and EIT correctly demonstrated no tidal ventilation. SpO2 decreased from mean (SD) 96 (2)% to 74 (12)% (P?
