Figure 6

Experimental setup to evaluate coughing through a tracheal tube during tracheal suctioning. The human patient simulator was positioned in the supine position. Exhaled air plume was indicated with intrapulmonary smoke and was revealed by laser light sheet in the sagittal plane (shown with the green section/arrows). Images were captured by high-definition camera positioned in a perpendicular position (red area) for data analysis.
