Interrupting gel layer between Double cuffs prevents fluid leakage past tracheal tube cuffs.

BACKGROUND Current tracheal tubes (TTs) cannot guarantee a perfect seal against pulmonary aspiration of upper airway secretions. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether a gel layer between the tracheal tube with double cuffs (Double cuffs) prevents fluid leakage past TT cuffs. METHODS In vitro fluid leakage tests were performed using the Double cuff with or without a gel layer be...

Influences of thigh cuffs on the cardiovascular system during 7-day head-down bed rest.

Thigh cuffs, presently named "bracelets," consist of two straps fixed to the upper part of each thigh, applying a pressure of 30 mmHg. The objective was to evaluate the cardiac, arterial, and venous changes in a group of subjects in head-down tilt (HDT) for 7 days by using thigh cuffs during the daytime, and in a control group not using cuffs. The cardiovascular parameters were measured by echo...

Leakage of fluid around endotracheal tube cuffs: a cadaver study

BACKGROUND The aim of the study was to evaluate the leakage of liquid past the cuffs of tracheal tubes in fresh frozen human heads. METHODS Six truncated fresh frozen heads were used and intubated with 8.0 mm endotracheal tubes. The intracuff pressures tested were 30 and 100 cmH2O. Subsequently, 20 ml of each of two oral antiseptic rinses (0.2% chlorhexidine and octenidine [octenidol®, Schülk...

Use of thigh pressure cuffs to modulate simulated microgravity-induced changes in the skin measured with high-resolution B-scan ultrasound.

OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to evaluate the fluid shift in a simulated microgravity experiment and to test the use of thigh cuffs to help alleviate the problem. METHODS The change in skin thickness was assessed by a 20 MHz B-scan ultrasound device. This was performed on eight volunteers who underwent two successive 7-day periods of -6 degrees anti-orthostatic bed-rest, with or ...

Wide contoured thigh cuffs and automated limb occlusion measurement allow lower tourniquet pressures.

We examined the amount of thigh tourniquet pressure that can be reduced from the typical 300 to 350 mm Hg by using a new automated plethysmographic limb occlusion pressure measurement technique. We also examined how much pressure could be reduced by using a wide contoured cuff compared with a standard cuff and if limb occlusion and systolic blood pressures were well correlated. Patients having ...
