[QUOTE="Farminlund, post: 68428, member: 1132"] I am sure there are more sophisticated tests, but once the tube is in place we put the end to our ear & listen for breathing sounds. If no such sounds are detected, we then put a shiney object at the end of the tube (a small mirror or something that would show condensation if breath were being exhailed) & watch for awhile. If still ok, we slowly begin admistering the fluids, first just a little & listen for unusual sounds in the lungs, then finally complete the procedure. We have managed to get the tube down the wrong "pipe", but extracted it before administering any fluid. [/QUOTE]
