Comparison of tracheal tube cuff inflation pressure among anesthesia team with different gradual level

Background & Objectives: Tracheal intubation is frequently performed in operating room. Over inflation of the endotracheal tube cuff is a risk factor for tracheal ischemia and subsequent complications. On the other hand inadequate cuff pressure increases the risk of aspiration of gastric contents. In this study, the endotracheal tube cuff pressure filled by the anesthesia team has been compared...

Assessment of aspiration risk from dynamic modulation of endotracheal tube cuff pressure.

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To assess the risk of aspiration using a novel valve circuit that dynamically modulates endotracheal tube cuff pressure during the ventilatory cycle using bench and live animal models. STUDY DESIGN Animal model. METHODS The bench model consisted of a cuffed endotracheal tube inserted into an artificial trachea. Leakage of liquid around the cuff was measured after 4 hou...

Endotracheal tube cuff pressure: need for precise measurement.

CONTEXT High compliance endotracheal tubes cuffs are used to prevent gas leak and also pulmonary aspiration in mechanically ventilated patients. However, the use of the usual cuff inflation volumes may cause tracheal damage. OBJECTIVE We tested the hypothesis that endotracheal tube cuff pressures are routinely high (above 40 cmH2O) in the Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU) or Intensive Care Uni...

Study 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...

مقایسه تاثیر روش های نمودار حجم- زمان و استتوسکوپ در کنترل نشت هوا از کاف لوله تراشه بر فراوانی آتلکتازی در بیماران تحت عمل جراحی عروق کرونر

Background and purpose: Inappropriate pressure of the endotracheal cuff causes aspiration of oral secretions in airway resulting in atelectasis. This study aimed at comparing the effects of two methods of filling the endotracheal cuff on the frequency of atelectasis in patients following coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Materials and methods: In this clinical trial, 206 candidates for cor...

Optimization of endotracheal tube cuff filling by continuous upper airway carbon dioxide monitoring.

UNLABELLED Inappropriate cuff filling is responsible for various complications related to the use of an endotracheal tube (ETT). In this study, we evaluated an objective, noninvasive method for continuous assessment of leak around the ETT cuff by monitoring carbon dioxide pressure (P(CO2) in the upper airway. P(CO2) levels were measured by capnography simultaneously between the ETT cuff and the...
