Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Our study is a randomized controlled single-blind clinical study. It was planned to include patients aged between 1 month and 18 years, who required at least 48 hours of mechanical ventilation. Our exclusion criteria; intubation history in the last 14 days, airway trauma, airway anomaly, tracheotomy, mechanical ventilation for less than 48 hours and immunosuppression. It was planned to include the patients included in the study in the manual or automatic cuff gauge group using a 1:1 randomization table. In the automatic cuff meter group, it was planned to monitor the patients continuously by targeting 20 cmH20 endotracheal tube pressure. It was planned to measure the cuff pressure at 8 hour intervals for the patients in the manual cuff gauge group and to correct the deviations in the pressure. CDC criteria will be used as VIP diagnostic criteria. Patients will be monitored for the development of VIP and complications related to the endotracheal tube (such as stenosis, stridor)

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
manual group
The cuff pressure of the tracheal tube will be monitored every 8 hours in the manual group using a portable manometer. The target endotracheal tube cuff pressure will be 20 cm H2O throughout the follow-up of the patients.
endotracheal cuff pressure manual measurement
The cuff pressure of the tracheal tube will be monitored every 8 hours in the manual group using a portable manometer. The target endotracheal tube cuff pressure will be 20 cm H2O during the follow-up of patients. Before starting to work, PICU nurses will be given training in recognizing and preventing VAP and using cuff pressure measuring devices. The application period will continue from the day of intubation to extubation or a maximum of 14 days. Study data forms will be filled out by PICU nurses and monitored by physicians. The research group will periodically observe PICU personnel to verify adherence to the protocol. While patients are mechanically ventilated, VIP findings will be routinely screened at each daily visit.
