To assist in breathing, an endotracheal tube is inserted through the patient's mouth into the trachea.

 



  An endotracheal tube is a medical device that provides an artificial airway. When a patient is unable to breathe on their own, it is implanted. It is inserted into the trachea (windpipe) through the mouth or nose to assist a patient in breathing during surgery. A coated endotracheal tube is a tube that has been coated with antithrombotic agents to prevent biofilm formation. By preventing bacterial colonization and biofilm formation, coating lowers the risk of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). The rise in the number of surgical procedures due to the increased prevalence of chronic respiratory diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, respiratory diseases, diabetes, cancer, and other lung injuries is a major factor contributing to the growth of the coated endotracheal tube.

 

What is the purpose of an endotracheal tube?

Endotracheal intubation is used to keep the airway open so that oxygen, medicine, or anesthesia can be administered. Breathing assistance is provided in certain illnesses, such as pneumonia, emphysema, heart failure, collapsed lung, or severe trauma.

 

What are the different types of endotracheal tubes?

Endotracheal tubes are classified as oral or nasal, cuffed or unstuffed, preformed (e.g., RAE (Ring, Adair, and Elwyn) tubes), reinforced tubes, or double-lumen end bronchial tubes. Tubes for human use range in internal diameter from 2 to 10.5 mm (ID).

 

  Furthermore, an increase in the incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia increased awareness of technologically advanced endotracheal tubes, and advancements in Nan biotechnology and drug design are expected to drive the growth of the global coated endotracheal tubes. However, a scarcity of skilled professionals and the post-operative risks associated with laparoscopy surgeries are impeding the market growth. Developing economies, on the other hand, offer lucrative growth opportunities for the market, owing to an increase in the geriatric population, advanced healthcare infrastructure, and a high increase in patients with VAP.

  According to Coherent Market Insights, the global endotracheal tube market will be worth $739.4 million in 2019 and will grow at a CAGR of 6.4 percent over the forecast period (2019-2027).
