Endotracheal tube (ETT) cuff hyperinflation can cause inflammation of the endotracheal layer; ischemia or necrosis of the tracheal wall and under expansion increases the risk of lung aspiration, anesthetic gas leaks, and environmental pollution increase. Intubation is routinely performed during general anesthesia. Maintain proper cuff pressure when inflating the endotracheal tube (ETT) cuff, as serious adverse events can occur at both too high (positive) and low (negative) cuff pressures. It is important to do. In the present work an attempt had been made to evaluate the efficacy of ETT cuff pressure measurement using conventional clinical method of digital palpation of pilot balloon by comparing with instrumental method using standard cuff pressure manometer.
