[Endotracheal tube cuff pressure increases in patients undergoing shoulder arthroscopy: a single cohort study].

CONCLUSIONS: Endotracheal tube cuff pressures increased with operation time and with increased volumes of irrigation fluid used in patients who underwent shoulder arthroscopy. We recommend close monitoring of endotracheal tube cuff pressures during shoulder arthroscopy, especially during long operations using a large amount of irrigation fluid, to prevent complications caused by raised cuff pressures.
