Increases in cuff volume and pressure in red rubber endotracheal tubes during anaesthesia.
Increases in endotracheal tube cell volume and pressure during anaesthesia have been reported to be due to the diffusion of nitrous oxide into the cuff. This study compared cuff volume and pressure changes in anaesthetized intubated patients who were ventilated with those allowed to breath spontaneously. ⋯ The increase in cuff pressure was however, greater during intermittent positive pressure ventilation than for spontaneous respiration. There were no significant changes when the cuff was inflated with the nitrous oxide-oxygen mixture.
