Volume-time curve: an alternative for endotracheal tube cuff management.
BACKGROUND Despite numerous studies on endotracheal tube cuff pressure (CP) management, the literature has yet to establish a technique capable of adequately filling the cuff with an appropriate volume of air while generating low CP in a less subjective way. The purpose of this prospective study was to evaluate and compare the CP levels and air volume required to fill the endotracheal tubes cuf...
متن کاملClinical use of the volume-time curve for endotracheal tube cuff management.
BACKGROUND Previous investigation showed that the volume-time curve technique could be an alternative for endotracheal tube (ETT) cuff management. However, the clinical impact of the volume-time curve application has not been documented. The purpose of this study was to compare the occurrence and intensity of a sore throat, cough, thoracic pain, and pulmonary function between these 2 techniques...
متن کاملLinear Correlation of Endotracheal Tube Cuff Pressure and Volume
OBJECTIVES Endotracheal tube cuff (ETTc) inflation by standard methods may result in excessive ETTc pressure. Previous studies have indicated that methods of cuff inflation most frequently used to inflate ETTcs include palpation of the tension in the pilot balloon or injection of a predetermined volume of air to inflate the pilot balloon. If a logarithmic relationship exists between ETTc volume...
متن کاملStudy of endotracheal tube cuff pressure and time of measurement among intensive care units patients
Introduction: The pressure in the endotracheal tube cuff must be kept within an optimal range, to make sure tracheal capillaries circulation still stable during positive ventilation. This is essential to avoid oral and gastric stuffing aspiration Objective: The objective of this study was to assess the endotracheal tube cuff pressure and time intervals measurements among intensive care units...
متن کاملEndotracheal tube lumen compromise from cuff overinflation.
A chest roentgenogram demonstrates lumen collapse as the cause of ventilatory obstruction in an intubated patient. This problem is not restricted to defective tubes but may be caused by overinflation of the cuff in normal tubes. D espite the impressive record of endotracheal tubes as guardians of an unobstructed airway, human and mechanical failure causing these devices to become dangerous site...
