Event Description

The patient was found with a speaking valve on and was in respiratory distress.There was palpable air on the pilot balloon leading to the suspicion that the cuff was partially inflated.The speaking valve was taken out, and the cuff was completely deflated.Healthcare professionals suspected that the cuff was "inflating on its own" as the patient had been wearing the speaking valve with the cuff deflated for days without any issue.
