Optimal endotracheal cuff pressure in the intensive care setting: A pilot study

Optimal endotracheal cuff pressure in the intensive care setting: A pilot study

Background: Endotracheal tube cuff pressure is clinically measured by “minimal occlusion (MOC) and minimal leak (MLK) techniques” by palpating and auscultating the neck for end-inspiratory “elimination” or “allowance” of subtle air leak, respectively. This study was done to determine the validity an...
