NCT ID NCT07427173
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at 104 adults having surgery with a breathing tube. It compares using a special pressure gauge (manometer) versus the traditional finger-pinch method to set the tube's cuff pressure. The goal is to see if the gauge reduces sore throat, hoarseness, or other airway problems after surgery.
