Verification of endotracheal tube placement by prehospital providers: is a portable fiberoptic bronchoscope of value?
Air Med J. 2006 Mar-Apr; (2): 74-8; discussion 78-80
This study was designed to examine whether a handheld, battery-operated fiberoptic bronchoscope (FOB) used to verify endotracheal tube (ETT) placement would be as sensitive and specific as other modes and whether a combination of multiple modes would further enhance the sensitivity and specificity of ETT placement verification.
