Brief Summary
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of endotracheal tube securement techniques, a pragmatic, randomized controlled trial will compare the effect of adhesive tape versus endotracheal tube fastener on complications including lip ulcers, facial skin tears, endotracheal tube dislodgement, and ventilator associated pneumonia among critically ill adults requiring intubation and mechanical ventilation for at least 24 hours.
