Filter by:EXTUBE is an international, multicentre, prospective cohort study evaluating the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of extubation-related complications and describing clinical practices related to extubation after general anesthesia or after critical illness in the operating room (OR), out of OR anesthesia location or intensive care unit (ICU).
With the development of perinatal medicine, more and more newborns with respiratory failure can be treated due to the use of respiratory support technology. However, long-term invasive mechanical ventilation treatment can lead to a series of complications such as ventilator-associated pneumonia, atelectasis and air leakage syndrome, and increase the risk of bronchopulmonary dysplasia and neurodevelopmental lag of premature infants. It also leads to longer hospital stays and higher hospital costs. To shorten the invasive mechanical ventilation time and improve the success rate of withdrawal through various ways is the development direction of neonatal mechanical ventilation therapy. Respiratory muscle atrophy is common and rapid in children receiving invasive mechanical ventilation, and is an important cause of ventilator dependence and withdrawal failure. The diaphragm of newborns is the main respiratory muscle, of which the diaphragm type 1 endurance fiber accounts for only about 30%, far lower than the proportion of about 55% in adults, so the diaphragm of newborns is more prone to fatigue. Previous animal experiments and clinical studies in children and adults have confirmed that diaphragmatic pacing therapy applied to patients with long-term invasive mechanical ventilation can prevent diaphragmatic atrophy, reverse diaphragmatic injury, significantly improve diaphragmatic thickness, improve diaphragmatic anti-fatigue ability, thereby increasing lung ventilation, relieving dyspnea, and achieving the effect of assisted extubation. The neonatology Department of the Children's Hospital Affiliated to Chongqing Medical University started neonatal external diaphragm pacemaker treatment in 2022, and has completed 1383 cases so far, initially showing the effectiveness and safety of external diaphragm pacemaker treatment in neonatal population. But so far, there is no systematic evaluation of clinical intervention effect of external diaphragm pacemaker treatment on neonatal respiratory failure patients at home and abroad. Based on this, the project team intends to conduct a prospective randomized controlled study to systematically evaluate the safety of external diaphragm pacemaker in preterm infants requiring invasive mechanical ventilation for ≥7 days at 28 to 35 weeks of gestation, and to evaluate the efficacy of external diaphragm pacemaker in adjuvant extubation.
The proposed study is to compare a modified DE technique, which is regularly used for low-risk patients by staff anesthesiologists at our institution, to a standard awake extubation. This modified deep extubation (mDE) occurs while the patient is still anaesthetized but at a lower dose of anaesthetic gas than previously described, and balanced with long acting opioids to attenuate the airway reaction. As previously stated, the literature shows that the risks of DE are equivalent to those of regular AE practice. Our hypothesis is that mDE will shorten the time from the end of the surgery (completion of last stitch) to the moment the patient is ready to leave the OR by at least 5 minutes when compared to standard AE practice.
The additional time required to awaken a patient is one of the main reasons for not extubating him or her in the operating room (OR). Conversely, transferring an intubated patient to recovery room (RR), prolonging the duration of anesthesia and intubation, in a limited environment in human resources, may lead to increased complications' rates. Little is known about those time lengths and complications rates.
Because Propofol is the primary "anesthetic agent," and inhalational agents remain in trace quantities at the end of the procedure Sevoflurane initiated intravenous anesthesia (SIIVA) or not present at all Total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) it is likely that different criteria may be predictive of extubation success in these patients compared to inhalational anesthesia.
After surgery is completed under general anesthesia, extubation is performed after recovery from anesthesia, and during this process, bucking, coughing, and rapid and excessive hemodynamic fluctuations occur very often. These phenomena can lead to high intrathoracic pressure, venous congestion, hematoma formation, or increased bleeding after major neck surgery. (1) They can also increase the risk of aerosol generation, which can transmit infection to health care workers. (2) For this, smooth extubation is required. Methods of administering drugs such as lidocaine, opioids, or dexmedetomidine have been proposed for smooth extubation. (3-5) As a disadvantage, the use of these drugs may be associated with deep sedation and reduced airway reflexes . Recently, Babu et al. (6) reported that bucking and coughing during extubation could be reduced by changing the timing of administering a muscle relaxant antagonist rather than using these sedative drugs, and thus complications related to extubation could be reduced. In general, in the awakening process, it was common to administer the muscle relaxant at the point of recovery of spontaneous breathing. However, Babu et al. demonstrated the possibility of safe and smooth extubation by changing the timing of administering neostigmine without the use of sedatives or narcotic analgesics, but there are few studies on sugammadex. Therefore, when recovering from general anesthesia, sugammadex was administered before and immediately after extubation to evaluate and compare smooth extubation (ie, comparison of the frequency of bucking and coughing).
Intensive care unit (ICU) is an important part of perioperative management for high-risk patients but is associated with higher medical costs. Improper ICU admission may produce overtreatment without beneficial effects. In clinical practice, delayed recovery after general anesthesia is a common indication for ICU admission after surgery. The concept of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery recommends early extubation. The investigators suppose that, for patients with planned ICU admission after elective surgery, implementing anesthesia quality improvement including extubation in the operating room will reduce the rate of ICU admission after surgery without increasing complications.
Single-center, prospective, controlled, parallel, randomized, single-blind study comparing the conventional extubation technique to two positive pressure extubation techniques on postoperative desaturations
Children with acute respiratory failure often need a breathing tube attached to a breathing machine, called a mechanical ventilator, to assist their breathing until they can recover. Once the cause of respiratory failure has resolved or improved enough, the breathing tube can be removed, and that is called extubation. The Extubation Readiness Test (ERT) is a simple evaluation commonly performed in the intensive care unit to determine if a child is ready to have the breathing tube removed. The purpose of this study is to better understand how the ERT and the eventual removal of the breathing tube affect where the air is in the lungs, and whether this can help predict which children will succeed or fail having the breathing tube taken out. This can done be at the bedside with a device called electrical impedance tomograph. This novel device is painless and uses a belt fitted with sensors placed around the chest to show where the air is in the lungs.
