CA 2441652

An intubation method and system including the insertion of an endotracheal tube into a patient airway, inflating an cuff associated with the endotracheal tube at a location in the patient airway below the vocal cords, monitoring carbon dioxide concentration in the patient airway at a carbon dioxide monitoring location between the cuff and the vocal cords and adjusting inflation of the cuff based at least in part on the monitoring in order that the cuff inflation generally prevents leakage of carbon dioxide past the cuff.

L'invention concerne un procédé et un système d'intubation consistant à insérer un tube endotrachéal dans les voies respiratoires d'un patient, à gonfler un coussinet associé au tube endotrachéal au niveau d'un emplacement situé dans les voies respiratoires du patient sous les cordes vocales, à contrôler la concentration de gaz carbonique dans les voies respiratoires du patient au niveau d'un emplacement de contrôle du gaz carbonique situé entre le coussinet et les cordes vocales, et à ajuster le gonflage du coussinet sur la base, au moins, en partie, du contrôle, de manière que le gonflage dudit coussinet empêche, d'une manière générale la fuite de gaz de carbone au-delà du coussinet.
