ABSTRACT:
An endotracheal tube is fitted with a leak preventing cuff. The cuff encompasses the tube and is made self-inflating by opening a respiratory gas flow passage through the tube wall from the interior of the tube to the interior of the cuff. The function of the tube is enhanced, and safety is improved, by molding the distal end of the tube.
