Laryngeal ultrasound versus cuff leak test in prediction of post-extubation stridor
Background: Cuff leak test (CLT) has been proposed as a simple method of predicting post-extubation stridor (PES), however due to different cut-off point of cuff-leak volume between previous studies, the laryngeal ultrasonography (US) including measurement of air column width was used to predict PES...
