Comparison of Three Methods in Estimating the Oral Endotracheal Tube Insertion Depth in Neonates: Nasal Septum–Tragus Length, Weight, or Gestation? A Randomized Trial
The NTL formula (NTL + 1 cm for neonates weighing < 2500 g and NTL + 0.5 cm for neonates weighing ≥ 2500 g) may be more reliable for estimating ETT depth in neonates.
