Three months since tracheostomy and I have a constant problem with the cuff letting air past so that my throat is gurgling and the respirator beeping high mvi. The only way to make it tight is overinflation to the order of 50 mbar which is harmful to the tissue inside the trachea. I had the cannula replaced two days ago but the problem remains. Any idea what could be done?
