Abstract:Background
To discuss whether decreasing the pressure of endotracheal tube cuff slowly with a constant speed can decrease the incidence of coughing during extubation.
Methods
Ninety patients undergoing elective noncardiac surgery under general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation were randomly divided into two groups: group P, the pilot balloon was connected to a syringe and an aneroid manometer through a three-way stopcock, respectively, and the decrease of cuff pre… Show more
