Impact of Deep Versus Shallow Tracheal Suctioning on Cardiovascular Indices and Suction Induced Complications Among Mechanically Ventilated Patients.

Background: Tracheal suctioning is a critical component of care for mechanically ventilated patients' treatment. The effectiveness and associated complications of suctioning can vary depending on the depth of catheter insertion. Although several guidelines assist nurses in selecting the appropriate suctioning technique, while the optimal suctioning depth remains uncertain.
