Preparation: Determining Sizes

  1. Internal Diameter (ID)
    1. Newborns
      1. Newborn <28 weeks (<1000 g): 2.5 mm
      2. Newborn 28-34 weeks (1000-2000 grams): 3.0 mm
      3. Newborn 34-38 weeks (2000-3000 grams): 3.5 mm
      4. Newborn >38 weeks (>3000 grams): 3.5 to 4.0 mm
    2. Infant under 6 months: 3.5 - 4.0 mm
    3. Infant under 1 year: 4.0 - 4.5 mm
    4. Child under 2 years: 4.5 - 5.0 mm
    5. Child over 2 years
      1. Uncuffed Tube = (Age in years)/4 + 4mm
      2. Cuffed Tube = (Age in years)/4 + 3.5mm
        1. Cuffed tube sizes should be dropped by 0.5 mm
    6. Adult Female: 7.0 - 8.0 mm
    7. Adult Male: 8.0 - 8.5 mm
    8. Alternative Method: Length based (Broselow Tape)
  2. Outside Diameter
    1. Estimated by the size of the child's little (pinky) finger
  3. Distance or Depth of Insertion (from distal tube tip to tip)
    1. Marking at bottom of ET Tube should be at cord level
    2. Estimate: Multiply ET Internal Diameter by 3 centimeters
    3. Newborns ('Tip to Lip' distance = 6 + Weight in Kg)
      1. Prepare by cutting ET Tube to 13 to 15 cm
      2. Weight 1 kg: Insert 7 cm depth
      3. Weight 2 kg: Insert 8 cm depth
      4. Weight 3 kg: Insert 9 cm depth
      5. Weight 4 kg: Insert 10 cm depth
    4. Infant under 6 months: 10 cm
    5. Infant under 1 year: 11 cm
    6. Child under 2 years: 12 cm

    3. ET Tube 3.5 mm: Use 8 French Catheter
    4. ET Tube 4.0 mm: Use 8 or 10 French Catheter

V. Preparation: Estimating other tube sizes based on ET Tube size

  1. Mnemonic: 1 to 2, 2 to 4
  2. ETT x 1 =
    1. Uncuffed: (Age/4) + 4 mm
      1. Accurate for age over 2 years (see above)
      2. Uncuffed Endotracheal Tube size estimate (subtract 0.5 mm for a cuffed tube size)
    2. Cuffed: (Age/4) + 3 mm
  3. ETT x 2 = Nasogastric Tube, Orogastric Tube or Foley Catheter tube size
  4. ETT x 3 = Endotracheal Tube depth of insertion
  5. ETT x 4 = Chest Tube size (maximum), Endotracheal Tube Cuff for Sale
