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 کاملBest Method for Securing an Endotracheal Tube.
CEN, CFRN, CPEN, and Tom Pietrantonio, BSRT, RRT-RCP, reply: In a study published in Respiratory Care, Shimizu et al3 concluded that the conventional adhesive tape methods had greater extubation force than the 2 endotracheal tube holders and that extubation force varies considerably depending on the width, length, and type of adhesive tape used. Mohammed and Hassan4 studied endotracheal tube sl...
متن کاملVentilator autocycling due to an endotracheal tube cuff leak.
Ventilator autocycling can occur with any ventilator if the sensitivity is improperly set or if a gas leak exists in the respiratory system which creates a negative change in proximal airway pressure. We report a case of ventilator autocycling in a paralyzed patient secondary to an endotracheal cuff leak which was misconstrued as assisted ventilation. We believe this is the first report of auto...

متن کاملBlind endobronchial insertion of a movable bronchial blocker attached to an endotracheal tube, Univent tube.
The endotracheal tube with a movable bronchial blocker, Univent tube, used to effect one-lung ventilation is easy to use in endotracheal intubation. However, problems are often encountered when inserting the blocker into the bronchus. We herein describe a method which enables the easy blind insertion of the blocker into the left or right bronchus. The techniques of inserting the blocker into th...
