SRNA here. Had a great conversation with my preceptor about this and wanted to bring it to a wider group —they polled a bunch of people they trust and it came back basically 50/50, so now I'm curious what this sub thinks. DO you guys rip the pilot balloon when extubation or use a syringe to delate the pilot balloon?

Curious to hear what yall do ! anyone had a bad outcome (trauma, incomplete deflation, aspiration risk) tied to one technique vs. the other? Mac vs. Miller energy, but for cuffs!
