Suctioning the endotracheal tube - medical animation

Endotracheal suctioning (ETS) is a necessary practice carried out in intensive care by nurses. As shown in this medical animation, It involves the removal of pulmonary secretions from a patient with an artificial airway in place. Suctioning clears mucus and is essential for proper breathing as secretions left in the tube could become contaminated and a chest infection could develop. This is imperative if surgery is a requirement.

After intubation, the closed-suction technique is the preferred method for suctioning because the patient is connected to the ventilator throughout the suctioning procedure which facilitates continuous oxygenation. The closed-suction technique allows for a continued tidal volume delivery to the patient with minimal loss of lung volume. Closed suctioning is suggested for an adult patient with high fraction of inspired oxygen (FIO2) or positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) or for a patient who is at risk for lung derecruitment.
