In vivo detection of endotracheal tube biofilms in intubated critical care patients using catheter-based optical coherence tomography

The formation of biofilms in the endotracheal tubes (ETTs) of intubated patients on mechanical ventilation is associated with a greater risk of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) and death. New technologies are needed to detect and monitor ETTs in vivo for the presence of these biofilms. Longitud...
