Extubation of the Difficult Airway

Journal of Intensive Care Medicine, 2011
Managing the airway in the intensive care unit (ICU) is complicated by a wide array of physiologic factors. Difficult airway may be a consequence of patient’s anatomy or airway edema developed during the ICU stay and mechanical ventilation. The incidence of failed airways and of cardiac arrest related to airway instrumentation in the ICU is much higher

Safe extubation of a parturient using an airway exchange technique

International Journal of Obstetric Anesthesia, 2014
The difficult obstetric airway is a well-recognised anaesthetic challenge but little emphasis is placed on the difficulty of performing a safe tracheal extubation. We report the use of an airway exchange technique to extubate a difficult obstetric airway and discuss the role of these techniques in the obstetric population.

Positive Airway Pressure at Extubation Minimizes Subglottic Secretion Leak In Vitro

Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2022
Accumulated secretion above the endotracheal tube cuff can be aspirated during extubation after deflation. The possible techniques for minimizing pulmonary aspiration from subglottic secretion during extubation have not been well explored.

Deep vs. Awake Extubation and LMA Removal in Terms of Airway Complications in Pediatric Patients Undergoing Anesthesia: A Systemic Review and Meta-Analysis

Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2018
The purpose of this study was to compare the incidence of airway complications between extubation under deep anesthesia (deep extubation) and extubation when fully awake (awake extubation) in pediatric patients after general anesthesia.

Tracheal extubation of the adult intensive care patient with a predicted difficult airway – a narrative review

Anaesthesia, 2017
Management of the difficult airway is an important, but as yet poorly-studied, component of intensive care management. Although there has been a strong emphasis on prediction and intubation of the difficult airway, safe extubation of the patient with a ...

Extubation of the potentially difficult airway in the intensive care unit

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2022
Purpose of review Extubation in the intensive care unit (ICU) is associated with a failure rate requiring reintubation in 10–20% patients further associated with significant morbidity and mortality. This review serves to highlight recent advancements and guidance on approaching extubation for patients at risk for difficult or ...

Extubation of the Difficult Airway 

Anesthesiology, 1997
Even though tracheal extubation is more likely to be associated with airway complications [1], most literature surrounding management of the difficult airway is focused on intubation. The American Society of Anesthesiologists practice guidelines for management of the difficult airway recommend that the anesthesiologist should have a pre-formulated ...

Upper Airway Obstruction After Extubation

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1971
A 23-year-old woman, apparently in good health, suddenly became unconscious and cyanotic four days postpartum. Improvement followed endotracheal intubation, but immediate respiratory distress and asphyxia occurred after extubation. Autopsy revealed laryngeal edema and a follicular thyroid carcinoma encasing the trachea.
