Publication number: 20210007671Abstract: An apparatus for monitoring EMG signals of a patient's laryngeal muscles includes an endotracheal tube having an exterior surface. Conductive electrodes are formed on the endotracheal tube. The conductive electrodes are configured to receive the EMG signals from the laryngeal muscles when the endotracheal tube is placed in a trachea of the patient. At least wireless sensor is formed on the endotracheal tube, and is configured to wirelessly transmit information to a processing apparatus.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 18, 2020Publication date: January 14, 2021Applicant: MEDTRONIC XOMED, INC.Inventors: David C.
