Abstract		Securing the airway is one of the emergency medicine essentials. It includes many different procedures. One of them is intubation. Verification of endotracheal tube placement in the airway following intubation is critical. Most common complications are placement of the tube into the esophagus or endobroncial intubation. Capnometry is a reliable method for identifying correct tube placement but it does not exclude endobronchial intubation. Critical use of ultrasound with auscultation and capnometry excludes the possibility of endobronchial intubation.
Summary		Oskrba dihalne poti je eden od najnujnejših ukrepov v urgentni medicini, med katere spada tudi intubacija, kateri sledi potrditev lege tubusa. Prikaz glasilk pri intubaciji, avskultacija in kapnometrija so standardne metode za potrditev pravilne lege tubusa. Najpogostejša zapleta posega sta intubacija v požiralnik in endobronhialna intubacija. Kapnometrija je zanesljiva metoda za izključitev lege tubusa v požiralniku, vendar z njo ne moremo izključiti endobronhialne intubacije. S kritično uporabo ultrazvoka ob avskultaciji in kapnometriji lahko potrdimo endotrahealno lego tubusa in sočano izključimo možne zaplete.
