Endotracheal Tube Obstruction: A Manufacturing Defect.

Ramazan Baldemir1, Yavuz Akçaboy1, Zeynep Nur Akçaboy1, Nermin Göğüş1.   

Abstract

Various manufacturing defects of endotracheal tubes are encountered in anaesthesia practice. One of the important defects of an endotracheal tube is that a partial or complete obstruction can be potentially life-threatening. Manufacturing defects may not be ascertainable by routine inspection. In this case report, we report a partial airway obstruction caused by a plastic membrane in the connector of an endotracheal tube as a manufacturing defect.
