Abstract
An inflatable balloon cuff may be adapted to include a gas barrier material in order to seal a patient's trachea when associated with an endotracheal tube. The gas barrier material may preserve a cuff's mechanical pressure seal during lengthy intubation times or during surgical procedures. The gas barrier on the inflatable cuff may be a general gas barrier, or may be specific to certain gases.
