The tube deviates to the left at the carina
and is in the left lung
The tube deviates to the left at the carina and is in the
left lung
Explanation
The tube does not bisect the carina
The tube can be seen to deviate at the level of the
carina at the level of T4/T5 indicating it is in the
lung, and must therefore be removed
A tube that passes below the diaphragm may still
be in the posterior part of the lung - remove tube
The tube bisects the carina
A : The tube deviates to the left at the carina and is in the left lung
Explanation
The tube does not bisect the carina
The tube can be seen to deviate at the level of the carina at the level of T4/T5
indicating it is in the lung, and should therefore be removed
A tube that passes below the diaphragm may still be in the posterior part of the
lung - remove tube
The tube is likely to be in a hiatus hernia
A : The tube deviates to the left at the carina and is in the left lung
Explanation
The tube does not bisect the carina
The tube can be seen to deviate at the level of the carina at the
level of T4/T5 indicating it is in the lung, and should therefore be
removed
A tube that passes below the diaphragm may still be in the posterior
part of the lung - remove tube
The tube passes below the diaphragm
and can be used for feeding
