Summary
Based on standard and historical practice, the predictive size of the endotracheal tube (ETT)
 to be used in children has been based on various formulas. However, no study has clearly
 compared these formulas to determine the optimal size of cuffed ETTs. Furthermore, they were
 developed when using a polyvinylchloride cuff and not the thinner polyurethane cuff which is
 in common clinical use today. Hence, the purpose of this current study is to evaluate which
 of the currently available formulas most closely predicts the appropriate size of cuffed ETT
 to be used based not only on the fit within the trachea, but more importantly the intracuff
 pressure after the cuff is inflated to seal the airway.
