A quantitative evaluation of fluid leakage around a polyvinyl chloride tapered endotracheal tube cuff using an in-vitro model
INTRODUCTION This study was designed to quantitatively evaluate the sealing effect of a polyvinyl chloride tapered endotracheal tube cuff and to compare the tapered cuff with cylindrical endotracheal tube cuffs using an in vitro viscous fluid model. METHODS Five types of 8.0 mm inner diameter endotracheal tubes (TaperGuard, PortexSacett, PortexSoftseal, Sheridan HVT, Sheridan CF) were fixed i...
متن کاملChemical modification of polyvinyl chloride and silicone elastomer in inhibiting adhesion of Aeromonas hydrophila
Disease-causing bacteria of the genus Aeromonas are able to adhere to pipe materials, colonizing the surfaces and forming biofilms in water distribution systems. The aim of our research was to study how the modification of materials used commonly in the water industry can reduce bacterial cell attachment. Polyvinyl chloride and silicone elastomer surfaces were activated and modified with reacti...
متن کاملComparison of the Amount of Air Leakage Into the Thoracic Cavity Associated with Three Thoracostomy Tube Materials in Canine Cadavers
This study was performed to compare the amount of air leakage into the thoracic cavity associated with three thoracostomy tube materials (silicone, polyvinyl chloride, red rubber) in canine cadavers. Differences in intrapleural pressures (IPPs) measured before and after tube placement and before and after tube removal were calculated. The duration of air leakage around the tubes was assessed by...
متن کاملThermal Degradation of Polyvinyl Chloride
A survey is given of the recent advances in the study of and the present knowledge of the thermal degradation of polyvinyl chloride. The sites for initiation of the thermal degradation, the mechanism of the dehydrochiorination, the discolouration of PVC by heat and the influence of plasticizers on the rate of degradation are discussed.
