No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Underinflation and overinflation of tracheal cuff are common in intubated patients, including those intubated with polyurethane-cuffed tubes. The aim of this study is to determine the efficiency of a pneumatic device in controlling cuff pressure.

Conditions

  • Mechanical Ventilation Complication
  • Tracheal Intubation Morbidity

Interventions

DEVICE

Pneumatic device, cylindrical or tapered cuff

Continuous control of cuff pressure using a pneumatic device (Nosten) Cylindrical (Kimberly Clark tube) or tapered (Covidien tube) tracheal cuff
