What situation would NOT trigger a high pressure alarm on a respirator?

A leaking cuff would typically not trigger a high-pressure alarm on a respirator because a leak in the cuff means that the pressure in the circuit is less than what it should be. This reduction in pressure would lead to lower resistance within the ventilatory system, thus not satisfying the conditions for a high-pressure alarm to activate. High-pressure alarms typically respond to situations where resistance in the airway increases, leading to higher pressures being needed to deliver air, such as with obstructions, increased airway resistance, or patient efforts like coughing that can create a transient increase in pressure demand.
