Conventional Weaning Parameters Do Not Predict Extubation Outcome in Intubated Subjects Requiring Prolonged Mechanical Ventilation

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND: Approaches to respiratory care of patients needing prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV) might be varied. In this study we assessed the predictive value of usual variables for extubation outcome in PMV patients.

Dexamethasone As Prophylaxis! is it Effective in Reducing Postoperative Extubation Blues in Paediatric Age Group? A RetrospectiveReview of 331 Patients

open access: yesIndian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2008
Use of steroids for different airway morbidities is common. This retrospective analysis was aimed at justifying the use of dexamethasone in preventing postoperative airway morbidities during extubation in paediatric age group.

Obstructive fibrinous tracheal pseudomembrane in a hemodialysis patient: a case report and review of literature

open access: yesBMC Nephrology
Background Obstructive fibrinous tracheal pseudomembrane (OFTP) is a relatively rare complication of endotracheal intubation. It can develop with short-term intubation, causing respiratory symptoms shortly after extubation. Delayed recognition of OFTP is

Comparison of ProSeal laryngeal mask airway (PLMA) with cuffed and uncuffed endotracheal tubes in infants

open access: yesBiomolecules & Biomedicine, 2016
We aimed to compare cuffed and uncuffed endotracheal tubes (ETTs) with ProSealTM laryngeal mask airway (PLMA) in terms of airway security and extubation, starting out from the hypothesis that PLMA will provide alternative airway safety to the ...

Delivery‐Room Prophylactic Thin‐Catheter Surfactant in Extremely Preterm Infants: A Multicentre Pilot Randomised Controlled Trial

open access: yesJournal of Paediatrics and Child Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To determine the effectiveness and feasibility of prophylactic thin‐catheter surfactant (TC‐S) in the delivery room in preventing intubation and mechanical ventilation in the first week after birth in extreme preterm infants. Methods The Extreme Preterm Infants Non‐invasive Surfactant Trial (EPINIST) was a pilot randomised controlled trial

Continuous positive airway pressure improves the immediate post-extubation airway patency

open access: yesKorean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2009
Endotracheal tube extubation can cause laryngospasm, aspiration, upper airway obstruction and hypoxia. In addition, the risk of pulmonary complication increases during extubation for the patients with a difficult airway or a cervical spine injury. The aim of this study was to exam the effect of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) on the post ...

First Experience With Extravascular Implantable Cardioverter‐Defibrillator Under Deep Sedation

open access: yesPacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The Extravascular Implantable Cardioverter‐Defibrillator (EV‐ICD) utilizes a substernal lead to provide defibrillation and anti‐tachycardia pacing (ATP) while avoiding transvenous complications. General anesthesia (GA) was applied for implantation procedures in the EV‐ICD pivotal trial and is currently recommended by the ...

EXTUBATE: A randomised controlled trial of nasal biphasic positive airway pressure vs. nasal continuous positive airway pressure following extubation in infants less than 30 weeks' gestation: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial

open access: yesTrials, 2011
Background Respiratory distress syndrome remains a significant problem among premature infants. Mechanical ventilation through an endotracheal tube remains the mainstay of respiratory support but may be associated with lung injury and the development of ...
