An endotracheal tube (ETT) is a tube usually constructed of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) that is placed between the vocal cords through the trachea to provide oxygen and inhaled gases to the lungs. It can be used to assist with breathing during surgery or to support breathing in patients with lung disease, chest trauma, or airway obstruction.

View MoreEndotracheal tube and mechanical ventilation mode relationship
The relationship between endotracheal tube and mechanical ventilation is an important topic in modern medicine, especially in the field of emergency and critical care medicine. Endotracheal intubation is to ensure an open airway by inserting a tube, usually made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), into the trachea to provide oxygen and support the patient's respiratory function.
The basic principle of endotracheal intubation is to ensure the patency of the airway by inserting an intubation instrument into the trachea between the vocal cords. This process is usually performed during surgery, emergency or intensive care. Its main applications include:
Assisted breathing during surgery: Under general anesthesia, the patient's spontaneous breathing may be suppressed, so endotracheal intubation is required to ensure breathing.
Acute respiratory failure: For patients with acute respiratory failure caused by lung diseases (such as pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) or trauma (such as chest trauma, airway obstruction), endotracheal intubation can provide necessary airway support.
Airway management: Endotracheal intubation can be used for airway clearance, especially when the patient has a lot of secretions or obstruction.
Combination of endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation
Mechanical ventilation refers to the use of a ventilator to support the patient's breathing. After endotracheal intubation, mechanical ventilation can be performed in the following ways:
Choice of ventilation mode: Different mechanical ventilation modes (such as volume control, pressure control, assisted ventilation, etc.) can be adjusted according to the patient's specific condition. For example, in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), doctors may choose a low tidal volume ventilation strategy to reduce lung damage.
Airway pressure monitoring: Through endotracheal intubation, doctors can accurately monitor airway pressure and gas flow, which is crucial for adjusting ventilation parameters.
Oxygen concentration adjustment: After intubation, the medical team can flexibly adjust the oxygen concentration provided by the ventilator according to the patient's blood oxygen saturation to optimize oxygenation.
Clinical strategies for mechanical ventilation
When implementing mechanical ventilation, the patient's specific condition and endotracheal intubation skills must be considered. Common clinical strategies include:
Assessing ventilation needs: Assessing whether the patient needs intubation and mechanical ventilation through blood gas analysis, clinical manifestations, and imaging examinations.
Personalized ventilation plan: Develop personalized ventilation plans based on the patient's weight, severity of the disease, and clinical response to improve the treatment effect.
Regular evaluation and adjustment: During mechanical ventilation, the patient's ventilation effect needs to be evaluated regularly, and the ventilation mode and parameters need to be adjusted in time according to the changes.
Technological progress and equipment development
With the development of medical technology, the equipment and technology of endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation are also constantly improving. For example:
Visual endotracheal intubation technology: Visualization equipment (such as video laryngoscope) greatly improves the success rate of endotracheal intubation, especially in the management of difficult airways.
Intelligent mechanical ventilation system: The new mechanical ventilation equipment is equipped with intelligent algorithms that can monitor the patient's physiological indicators in real time and automatically adjust ventilation parameters to improve the treatment effect.
Advanced respiratory monitoring technology: By using non-invasive monitoring technology, doctors can understand the patient's respiratory status in real time and respond in time.
Ningbo Yuxin Medical Instruments Co., Ltd., as a high-tech enterprise focusing on anesthesia respiratory consumables, will continue to be committed to improving the high-quality production of endotracheal intubation and providing better medical services to patients.
