Study Summary

The purpose of this research study is to help determine if the cuff of an endotracheal tube ( ETT) ( also known as a breathing tube)can be seen by ultrasound and to determine if visualization of this tube corresponds with correct tube depth. You are being asked to participate because you will be undergoing a cardiac catherization procedure which will involve endotracheal intubation. Ultrasound is a safe technology that your doctor could possibly use to see the breathing tube. Right now, x-rays, which come with their own risks, are being used for this purpose. We are trying to see if we can avoid using x-rays. This is a local study with 1 location. The study will enroll a total of 71 people. There is no sponsor for this study.

Primary Outcome

Determine the reliability of ultrasound in visualizing a saline-filled cuff of the ETT in pediatric patients.
