Extubation of the Difficult Airway
Anesthesiology, 1997Even 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 ...

Extubation of the Difficult Airway
DeckerMed Anesthesiology, 2019It is well known that induction and intubation are periods associated with patient risk. Especially in the case of patients with known or suspected difficult airways, extubation may be associated with similar risk. Therefore, attempts at extubation must be well planned, and preparations for urgent or emergent intubation must be in order prior to ...

Airway Fire during Tracheostomy
Anesthesiology, 1998AIRWAY fire can occur from ignition of airway tissue or an endotracheal tube (ETT), or both, by either a laser or electrocautery. In such an event, management protocol calls for immediate removal of the ETT. 1 However, removal of the ETT may result in irreversible loss of the airway because patients undergoing tracheostomy often have an increased risk

Review article: Extubation of the difficult airway and extubation failure.
Anesthesia and analgesia, 2013Respiratory complications after tracheal extubation are associated with significant morbidity and mortality, suggesting that process improvements in this clinical area are needed. The decreased rate of respiratory adverse events occurring during tracheal intubation since the implementation of guidelines for difficult airway management supports the ...

Single‐dose dexmedetomidine attenuates airway and circulatory reflexes during extubation
Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, 2005Background: The alpha agonist dexmedetomidine, a sedative and analgesic, reduces heart rate and blood pressure dose‐dependently. We investigated whether it also has the ability to attenuate airway and circulatory reflexes during emergence from anaesthesia.Methods: Sixty ASA I–III patients received a standard anaesthetic.

Extubation from Ambient or Expiratory Positive Airway Pressure in Adults
Anesthesiology, 1981End-expiratory pressure is often used to improve arterial oxygenation and prevent atelectasis in intubated spontaneously breathing patients. To compare the effect of extubation from low levels of expiratory positive airway pressure (EPAP) of extubation from ambient airway pressure, functional residual capacity (FRC) and arterial blood oxygen tension ...

Safe extubation of a parturient using an airway exchange technique
International Journal of Obstetric Anesthesia, 2014The 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.

Difficult Airway Society guidelines for the management of tracheal extubation
Anaesthesia, 2013Tracheal extubation is a high-risk phase of anaesthesia. The majority of problems that occur during extubation and emergence are of a minor nature, but a small and significant number may result in injury or death. The need for a strategy incorporating extubation is mentioned in several international airway management guidelines, but the subject is not ...

[Extubation of the difficult airway].
Revista espanola de anestesiologia y reanimacion, 2006Extubation, like intubation, is a critical moment in general anesthesia. There are no algorithms or ordered sequences of steps for extubation. Rather, the approach to take is strict observation of the patient in a setting equipped with monitors, material for managing the difficult airway, and experienced staff who should be able to establish access ...
