Personalized Automatic Management of Tracheal Cuff Pressure and Subglottic Secretion Drainage to Prevent Pneumonia in Critically Ill Intubated Patients: The MICROINHALO Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial

MICROINHALO found that automatic cuff pressure control plus subglottic secretion drainage did not reduce tracheal colonization, but it was linked to fewer ventilator-associated pneumonia cases in critically ill intubated patients.
