Endotracheal tube extubation force: adhesive tape versus endotracheal tube holder.
BACKGROUND Adhesive tape is commonly used to secure the endotracheal tube (ETT) in anesthesia and intensive-care settings. OBJECTIVE To determine the force required to extubate when the ETT is secured with adhesive tape or commercially available ETT holders. METHODS We orally intubated a simulation manikin with a standard 8.0-mm inner-diameter ETT, inflated the cuff to 20 cm H(2)O, and mea...

متن کاملA hazard of the pollard endotracheal tube.
Two patients are described in whom failure of the Pollard endotracheal tube produced complete respiratory obstruction. Comparisons are made of external diameters, resistance to gas flow and resistance to compression between Pollard tubes and several conventional tubes. It is concluded that the Pollard tube is not satisfactory for microlaryngoscopy.
متن کاملEndotracheal Tube Obstruction: A Manufacturing Defect.
Various manufacturing defects of endotracheal tubes are encountered in anaesthesia practice. One of the important defects of an endotracheal tube is that a partial or complete obstruction can be potentially life-threatening. Manufacturing defects may not be ascertainable by routine inspection. In this case report, we report a partial airway obstruction caused by a plastic membrane in the connec...
