Association between post-extubation upper airway obstruction symptoms and airway size measured by computed tomography: a single-center observational study

BMC Emergency Medicine, 2022
Background Computed tomography (CT) is often performed to assess patients; however, little is known about how airway size measured by CT scan imaging might influence the occurrence of post-extubation upper airway obstruction.

Analysis of predictive parameters for extubation in very low birth weight preterm infants

Pediatrics and Neonatology, 2023
Background: Mechanical ventilation is the primary treatment for preterm infants with respiratory failure. Prolonged intubation may lead to complications; thus, early extubation is desirable.

Pneumothorax Caused by Airway Extubation Catheter in a Difficult Intubation Case

, 2020
In the expected cases of difficult intubation, awake fiberoptic nasotracheal intubation and tube-changing catheter are being used. These practices can be life-saving but can also induce some complications, as well.

Effects of Positive Airway Pressure at Extubation in Patients Undergoing Upper Airway-related Surgery

Forbes Tıp Dergisi, 2023
Objective: The evidence base for extubation is limited, and some recommendations are based on traditional habits and expert opinion. We organized this study to provide an objective interpretation of the discussions regarding cuff deflation in extubation.

Incidence of airway complications in patients using endotracheal tubes with continuous aspiration of subglottic secretions

Annals of Intensive Care, 2017
Background Continuous aspiration of subglottic secretions is effective in preventing ventilator-associated pneumonia, but it involves a risk of mucosal damage. The main objective of our study was to determine the incidence of airway complications related

Non‐invasive ventilation and airway exchange catheter using a novel adapter in a difficult airway patient with post‐extubation respiratory failure

Respirology Case Reports, 2020
Post‐extubation respiratory failure in patients with difficult airway is considered a challenge for the health team. Some intratracheal devices such as airway exchange catheters (AECs) could be used during scheduled tube removing to ensure a rapid access
