Clinical trials: Aspiration Pneumonitis
Aspiration Pneumonia, Cricoid Cartilage
The Cricoid Pressure in Pediatric Patients
Because the cricoid force in children has not been quantified, clinicians wrongly used the 'adult' force. it has been found that the use of the adult force can result in compression and distortion of the child's airway and can…

Aspiration Pneumonia
The Effect of Continuous Versus Enteral Pump Feeding in Aspiration in Tube Fed Patients
Background: Tube feeding had been found to be a cause of aspiration pneumonia. Continuous pump feeding at slower rates as compared to bolus feeding may be less associated with aspiration pneumonia.
