Reviewer's report:
Thank you for comprehensive assessment of distal tube placement.
While you article is very detailed and comprehensive, it is my experience that much of the
discussion presents information regarding difficulties with blind tube placement that are already
familiar to those practicing in the critical care setting.

ASPEN CCM recommendations were also not met?
I would also encourage the reinforcement that High-Flow 02
Do you have practice change recommendations based on your conclusions?
