Transesophageal Probe Placement Increases Endotracheal Tube Cuff Pressure but is not Associated with Postoperative Extubation Failure after Congenital Cardiac Surgery

CONTEXT: The concomitant use of cuffed endotracheal tubes (ETT) and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) probes increases ETT cuff pressures (CP), which may contribute to mucosal ischemia and perioperative complications such as failed extubation. AIMS: To assess changes in ETT CP after TEE inserti...
