Abstract. A fully functional prototype of the first domestic automated device ensuring the maintenance of safe pressure in the cuffs of endotracheal and tracheostomy tubes is presented. The operating algorithms of the device are described. To formulate the distinctive features of the prototype being developed and determine its functional composition, a comparative analysis of existing solutions is performed and patent research is carried out. The developed pneumatic circuit and control board make it possible to implement the operating modes necessary to provide medical care. Tests of the device carried out in laboratory conditions demonstrate the high reliability and energy efficiency of the prototype; the device is suitable for all mechanical ventilation devices and anesthesia-respiratory devices, and therefore, can be used in anesthesiology and intensive care departments in medical institutions.
Keywords: endotracheal tube, tracheostomy tube, cuff pressure, pressure maintaining
