Laceration and hematoma in the left vocal fold during direct
laryngoscopy. Exam performed with rigid telescope
Bilateral intubation granulomas
inserted in the vocal apophasis.
Exam performed with rigid
telescope.
Ulcerated lesion in the posterior
glottic commissure soon after
extubation. Exam performed
with rigid telescope.
diffuse posterior erythema, edema and piled-up mucosa of inter-arytenoid area
Risk of mechanical complications
Risk of aspiration
Prince J S et al. Radiographics 2002;22:S215-S230
Tracheal stenosis (exam
performed with flexible
nasofibroscope)
Glottic stenosis (exam
performed with rigid
telescope).
Tracheal collapse of
more than 50% during
expiration is diagnostic
of tracheomalacia
The AnapnoGuard system detects air leakage from the lungs by measuring the CO2 level
above the cuff. Detection of high CO2 levels above the cuff represents leakage


Air inflation of the tube cuff until the airflow
heard escaping around the cuff during
positive pressure breath ceases.
Place a stethoscope over larynx. Indirectly
assesses inflation of cuff.
Slowly withdraw air (in 0.1-mL increments)
until a small leak is heard on inspiration.
Remove syringe tip, check inflation of pilot
balloon

64 year old male with history of COPD who
presented with severe respiratory distress
and required to be intubated and placed on
CMV, VT of 650 ml and a rate of 24/min.
Immediately post intubation, his systolic
blood pressure dropped from 132 mm Hg to
73 mm Hg.

No effect in Normal individual with PEEP less
than 10 cmH2O
Major effect in patients with Dynamic
Hyperinflation such as asthma and COPD,
and in pre-existing pulmonary hypertension
Small changes in PVR can cause considerable
hemodynamic compromise secondary to
acute increase in PVR
Avoid air trapping in these patients

Volutrauma
• Overdistention
Atelectetrauma • Repeated recruitment and collapse
Bio trauma
• Inflammatory mediators
Barotrauma
• High-pressure induced lung damage
Oxygen toxic
effect
• FiO2
Atelectrauma:
Repetitive alveolar collapse
and reopening of the underrecruited alveoli
Volutrauma:
Over-distension of normally
aerated alveoli due to excessive
volume delivery
Biotrauma
Cytokines, complement,
prostanoids, leukotrienes,
O2- Proteases

VAP – ventilator associated pneumonia
 >48 hours on vent
 Combination of:
▪ CXR changes
▪ Sputum changes
▪ Fever, ↑ WBC
▪ positive sputum culture

Occurs secondary to micro-aspiration of
upper airway secretions
No 1 risk factor is endotracheal intubation
Factors that related to cross contamination:
 Poor adherence to infection control standards
 Factors that enhance colonization of the oropharynx &/or stomach:
 Poor oral hygiene
 Conditions favoring aspiration into the respiratory tract or reflux
from GI tract:
 Supine position
 NGT placement
 Re-Intubation and self-extubation
 Surgery of head/neck/thorax/upper abdomen
 GERD
 Coma/ depressed Glascow coma scale


 45o head-up tilt is
the goal in all
patients unless
contraindicated
 No benefit of
semi-recumbency
~30o over standard
care ~10o
 Supine position is
harmful
