Endotracheal tube is a medical device employed for airway management in critically
injured, ill, or anesthetized patients. This tube is inserted in the trachea either through
mouth or nose to confirm the adequate exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide and
maintains the patients airway. These tubes are coated with antimicrobial coatings to
avoid the bacterial growth or biofilm formation on the surface of endotracheal tube,
which may cause airway obstruction.
The major factors that drive the coated endotracheal tubes market include increase in
number of surgical procedures due to increase in chronic respiratory diseases, rise in
prevalence of ventilator associated pneumonia, advantages of coated endotracheal
tubes over traditional tubes, and growth in geriatric population.
