Figure 4: Endotest by Portex; for checking endotracheal tube cuff pressure. Permissible upper limit is around 30 cmH2O, which is capillary pressure in tracheal mucosa. Excessive pressure may be a source of postextubation cough, but it is definitely linked to subglottic stenosis due to ischemic changes.
