How to estimate PEDI ET tube size: Uncuffed
Cuffed
Uncuffed ET: (Age /4) + 4 OR (Age + 16) /4
Cuffed ET = (Age /4) + 3.5
Pedi intubation ETT location=
ETT Insertion is 2-3 cm below the vocal cords
Suctioning catheter sizing form/=
Intubation ETT size # X 2
Suctioning time limits:
Adults 15 secs max,
Children= 10 secs max,
Infants=5 secs max,
ET/Trach tube= 5-10 secs max
ETT size range~
Adults (6.0-9.0) women~7-8 & man~8-9
Pedi tubes(2.5-5.5)
DISS =Fitting diameter index setting system > oxy tanks

ETCO2 levels (< 25 mmHg) could indicate
sepsis
