Core Tip |
This letter to the editor supports an opinion expressed in an article recently published in the World Journal of Anesthesiology. In that article, Feng et al mentioned that despite evidence suggesting its benefits, anesthesiologists often do not measure a patient’s endotracheal tube cuff pressure. We suggest an improvised and personalized technique that can be employed to facilitate taking such measurements on a routine basis in the setting of an intensive care unit with limited resources. |
