Use of Electronic Auscultation in Full Personal Protective Equipment to Detect Ventilation Status in Selective Lung Ventilation: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Use of Electronic Auscultation in Full Personal Protective Equipment to Detect Ventilation Status in Selective Lung Ventilation: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Chest auscultation is the first procedure performed to detect endotracheal tube malpositioning but conventional stethoscopes do not conform to the personal protective equipment (PPE) protocol during the COVID-19 pandemic. This double-blinded randomized controlled trial evaluated the feasibility of u...
