| Early surgical debridement, enteral feeding, mobilisation of the patient, and early extubation are desirable. |
|
| After extubation, patients were monitored for respiratory distress and hemodynamic stability up to 24 hours. |
|
| During her admission she had a week long episode of delirium follow extubation in the intensive care unit. |
|
| After extubation, the nurse and respiratory therapist assist the patient with using an incentive spirometer and deep breathing and coughing every one to two hours while awake. |
|
| Immediately after extubation, he presented with retractive breathing and stridor. |
|
| This patient presented with retractive breathing, stridor, and decreased SpO2 immediately after extubation. |
|
| Discussions about the duration of survival, sedation, gasping and muscle contractions should take place before extubation. |
|
| The patient, thus, was reintubated and after 12 hours she met the extubation parameters and so she was extubated successfully. |
|
| With an interdisciplinary process for extubation and pain control, the teams aim to limit post-operative intubation to fewer than 6 hours, and length of stay in the unit to fewer than 48 hours. |
|
| The breakaway hose connection design of the breathing circuit provides additional safety by preventing injury or extubation if undue traction is applied to the hoses. |
|
| As discussed before, photographs of the infant before and after extubation, and of the parents holding the infant play a large role in the grieving process later on. |
|
| Ventilated patients are among the most vulnerable patients in the hospital: An increased risk for infections, ventilator-induced injuries and higher mortality rates after failed extubation. |
|
| They plan to monitor the long-term effects and patient outcomes, as well as assess the impact of having this type of protocol in place and how it might play a role in decreasing airway damage and extubation failure rate. |
|
| Daily assessments should be made of a patient's readiness for extubation. |
|
| An 18-year-old female who had had repair of fractured nasal bones with packing of both nostrils required assisted ventilation after extubation. |
|
| For these reasons it is important to optimise the timing of effective need of IMV, guaranteeing a safe and lasting extubation. |
|
| The bispectral index was 44 immediately after intubation, ranged from 44 to 57 during maintenance of anesthesia, and was 59 at the moment of extubation. |
|
| There should be limited airway soiling by the surgeon and the airway needs to be meticulously cleaned after surgery is complete and before emergence and extubation. |
|
| He tolerated extubation well, and was transferred to the recovery room. |
