Guest guest Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Hello , Tubusblockung is some kind of obstruction in the tube, don't know for which reason (one may think of clots or kinking or technical problems). Regards Charlotte _____ Von: medical_translation [mailto:medical_translation ] Im Auftrag von Gesendet: Samstag, 21. Januar 2012 13:18 An: medical_translation Betreff: DE>EN: Tubusblockung Been following up various links, but can't decide whether/how this is to do with cuff pressure. The context is a study on nasogastric feeding tubes, focusing on the constitution of the diet itself but listing various problems encountered during the study. Hauefigste Ursache fuer eine notwendige Reduzierung bzw. Aussetzung der Sondenernaehrung war [sic]: therapieresistente gastroduodenale Passagestoerungen mit erhoehten Rueckfluss von Mageninhalt, Aspirationsgefahr bei Extubation, Umintubation oder Lockerung der Tubusblockung und therapieresistente Diarrhoe. There is no other mention of trach tubes, but these are mainly patients post brain surgery and/or cerebral trauma so presumably some of them have these (we know that some of them have been ventilated at some stage).

Guest guest Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Hello Charlotte, Not here. Note that it's the Lockerung that is the problem, not the Blockung. The tube is a trach tube/airway, and the problem seems to be deflation of the cuff, which may cause aspiration of stomach content. At least, this is how I have now decided it must be interpreted (with help from several people here and elsewhere).
