Abstract
An assembly structured to inflate a retaining or pressure cuff associated with an artificial airway tube and concurrently monitor pressure therein. A pump assembly is structured to force fluid flow to the retaining cuff, for inflation, through a pressure chamber within a casing of the assemblies. An indicator member is observable through a casing window and is variably positionable dependent on and indicative of existing pressure within the retaining cuff. Existing pressure within the pressure chamber is substantially equivalent to that within the retaining cuff and is thereby indicative of pressure within the retaining cuff. A junction may be disposed in removable interconnecting relation between the casing and an inflation lumen and be structured to prevent reconnection there between.
