Implementation of the TaperGuard™ endotracheal tube in an unselected surgical population to reduce postoperative pneumonia

2020-08-11

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p><underline>Background</underline>: Endotracheal tube (ETT) designs to decrease the risk of ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) include supraglottic suctioning, and/or modifications of the cuff shape. The TaperGuard™ ETT has a tapered, polyvinylchloride cuff designed to reduce microaspiration around channels that form with a standard barrel-shaped cuff. We compared risk of postoperativ...
