Alcohol increases bonding between the tracheal tube and the tracheal tube connector

Abstract
The tracheal tube (TT) connector needs to be firmly seated in both the TT and the breathing circuit to prevent disconnection during use. However, at times, the connector may loosen from its connection into the TT, increasing the likelihood of disconnection. We report a very simple yet useful technique to circumvent this problem.
