简要总结
This study is aimed at establishing whether use of loss of resistance syringe (LOR) that is traditionally used for identifying epidural space, is a better method for providing safe cuff pressures in adults intubated with cuffed endotracheal tubes. The conventional method is the use of pilot ballon palpation (PBP) to approximate cuff pressures but this is associated with airway damage.
The study hypothesis states that both the loss of resistance syringe method and the pilot balloon palpation methods achieve the recommended endotracheal tube intracuff pressures.

结局指标
主要结局
The percentage of subjects with intracuff pressure ranging from 20cm H2O to 30cmH2O
时间窗: 5minutes
This outcome will be measured within the first 5 minutes after intubation of the patient. The recommended range of intracuff pressure for this study is 20-30cmH2O
次要结局
- Incidence of early postoperative airway symptoms(12 hours)
