Importance Many patients who survive critical illness are left with laryngeal functional
impairment from endotracheal intubation that permanently limits their recovery and quality of …

Objective The aim is to use a simulation lung model to assess the possibility of performing
bronchoscopy through endotracheal tubes (ETT) less than 8.0‐mm while appropriately …

Objectives/Hypothesis To estimate the incidence of laryngotracheal stenosis among adults
after intubation. Study Design Cross‐sectional analysis. Methods We used the Nationwide …

Background: The present study aims to determine the impact of different cuff diameters on
the cuff pressure of endotracheal tubes (ETTs) when the trachea is adequately sealed …

Aim The commonly recommended endotracheal tube cuff pressure is 20–30 cmH2O.
However, some patients require a cuff pressure of> 30 cmH2O to prevent air leakage. The …

BACKGROUND: There is limited evidence on the clinical importance of the endotracheal
tube (ETT) size selection in patients with status asthmaticus who require invasive …

First, although the authors claim that their definition of the ideal ETT size draws from an
established nomogram, there are numerous discrepancies between their definition and the …

Methods| Following institutional review board approval from Vanderbilt University Medical
Center, we designed a 2-part multimodal intervention (Figure 1A). Part 1 was a multimedia …

In Reply We thank Schober et al for their expert review of our recent study. 3 Viewing
recovery from critical illness via the lens of long-term functional outcomes is difficult …

The current gold standard for combat airway management is endotracheal intubation
however, the performance of the current design, endotracheal tube (ETT), is highly …
