A new design of tracheal tube cuff, the pressure‐limited cuff, used with a constant‐pressure inflation system, was compared with a high‐volume low‐pressure cuffed tracheal tube for leakage of dye placed in the subglottic space into the trachea. Patients requiring ventilation on the intensive care un
**Summary** Pressures in the cuffs of three commonly used tracheal tubes (Portex Profile Softseal®, Mallinckrodt Lo‐Contour® and Mallinckrodt Hi‐Contour®, size 8.0 mm and 9.0 mm internal diameter), inflated with air, were measured during simulated ascents in an altitude chamber to 10 000 ft. There w
