Continuous versus intermittent endotracheal tube cuff pressure control for the prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia: A focused systematic review and exploratory meta-analysis
Continuous endotracheal tube cuff pressure control is intended to maintain cuff pressure within the recommended range, reduce microaspiration, and prevent ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). However, randomized trials have produced apparently inconsistent findings. The clinical question is therefore not only whe...
