Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Compare the efficacy of real-time ultrasonography in transverse versus longitudinal views for confirming endotracheal intubation, using sustained waveform capnography and chest auscultation as standard techniques.  To compare the efficacy of endotracheal intubation in adults using Longitudinal view and Transverse view real-time ultrasonography in patients admitted in an adult intensive care unit. Efficacy will be assessed by correct placement of endotracheal tube, number of attempts needed for endotracheal intubation, failed intubation after two attempts and time taken to confirm endotracheal intubation with combination of sustained waveform capnography and chest auscultation as standard technique 
Intervention  Correct endotracheal tube placement in adults in intensive care unit using sustained waveform capnography and chest auscultation as standard techniques.  Endotracheal intubation is a high risk procedure . Rapidly confirming endotracheal intubation is crucial as is detection of esophageal intubation to prevent adverse effect

Brief Summary   endotracheal intubation is a high risk procedure, often performed as emergency leading to higher incidence of osophageal intubation.Rapidly confirming endotracheal intubation is crucial,as is early detection of esophageal intubation,to prevent adverse effects. Various methods for confirming endotracheal intubation exist,such as sustained waveform capnography,chest auscultaion,chest xray,bronchoscopy,and real time ultrasonography. The American heart association recommends combining continuos sustained waveform capnography with chest auscultation to confirm endotracheal tube placement.nevertheless this requires delivering 6-7 mechanical breaths,which can pose risks in patients if the endotracheal intubation without ventilating the patient.Real time ultrasonography for airway management has become increasingly popular over the past decade due to its accessibility , painlessness affordabilty reproducibilty and safety.

In our Study we aim to compare the efficacy of real time ultrasonography in transverse versus longitudinal views for confirming endotracheal intubation using sustained capnography and chest auscultation.
