Laryngeal Edema Clinical Trial
Official title:
Ultrafast Ultrasonographic Oro-laryngeal Measurement in Critically Ill Patients During Weaning From Mechanical Ventilation
In ICU, ventilatory weaning failure is common, accounting for up to 25% of extubations. These failures are largely due to swallowing disorders and laryngeal edema. Edema prevalence in ICU varies between 4 and 37%. Post-extubation stridor is a clinical sign of upper airway obstruction and may require urgent reintubation, which is associated with increased patient length of stay, morbidity and mortality. Identifying patients at risk is critical, and the need for reliable tools to predict the occurence of laryngeal edema is still relevant.
