A change in the incidence of post-intubation complications in infants was the stimulus for the evaluation of the deformability of two brands of endotracheal tubes. The stiffness of each tube was evaluated at room and body conditions in the longitudinal axis of the tubes as well as a cross sectional plan. Shiley brand endotracheal tubes sizes 2.5 to 4.0 were less deformable than Portex brand of the same sizes.
婴儿插管后并发症发生率的变化促使人们对两种品牌气管内导管的可变形性进行评估。在室温及体温条件下，对每种导管在其纵轴方向以及横截面上的硬度进行了评估。尺寸为2.5至4.0的舒利（Shiley）品牌气管内导管比相同尺寸的波特克斯（Portex）品牌导管更不易变形。
