改良气管导管与普通气管导管在重症患者应用中的比较

Abstract

Objective: To explore the advantages of improved endotracheal tube and to compare it with traditional endotracheal tube. Methods: 25 patients requiring long-term mechanical ventilation patients were randomly divided into two groups: group A and group B. Group A (n=12) use improved endotracheal tube, and traditional endotracheal tube was used for Group B (n=13). The indwelling time, ICU hospitalization time, suffocation remission rate and replacement cost of the endotracheal tube were respectively compared between two groups. Results: GCS score and indwelling catheter time between two groups have no statistical significance, P > 0.05. Improved tracheal catheter is much better than traditional tracheal catheter with regards to catheter replacement cost, time of ICU stay and remission rate of suffocation, P<0.05. Conclusion: The improvement of the endotracheal tube can greatly reduce the rate of head end to stick wall, thus decreasing occurrence of severe shortness of breath, shortening the stay time of the patients in ICU at the same time, and greatly reducing the cost of hospitalization.
