Core Tip The ideal range for tracheal tube cuff pressures is typically between 20 to 30 cm H2O and is easily measured with a cuff pressure manometer. The importance of tracheal tube cuff pressures is highlighted by the spectrum of complications that can occur: high cuff pressures can result in complications ranging from sore throat and hoarseness to tracheal stenosis, necrosis, and even rupture, while cuff pressures that are too low place the patient at risk for aspiration and consequently, aspiration pneumonitis and pneumonia.
