Ultrasonographic Estimation of Endotracheal Case Series Tube Size in Paediatric Patients and its Comparison with Physical Indices Based Formulae: A Prospective Study [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2017 Introduction: Choosing the correct Endotracheal Tube (ETT) size is important in paediatric anaesthesia. The subglottic diameter being the narrowest diameter of the paediatric upper airway plays an important role in appropriate ETT size selection. Aim:

How do clarinet players adjust the resonances of their vocal tracts for different playing effects
, 2005 In a simple model, the reed of the clarinet is mechanically loaded by the series combination of the acoustical impedances of the instrument itself and of the player's vocal tract. Here we measure the complex impedance spectrum of players' tracts using an
