A new design of tracheal tube cuff, the pressureβlimited cuff, used with a constantβpressure inflation system, was compared with a highβvolume lowβpressure cuffed tracheal tube for leakage of dye placed in the subglottic space into the trachea. Patients requiring ventilation on the intensive care un

Air leak around a tracheal tube (TT) during mechanical ventilation is likely to occur during the inspiratory phase because airway pressure is high for a prolonged period. The presence of a leak may introduce errors in measurements of respiratory mechanics made at the airway opening. If so, respirato
