Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA; giacconea{at}email.chop.edu Objective Studies of extubation in preterm infants often define extubation success as a lack of reintubation within a specified time window.

The effects of variables on stridor were evaluated using uni- and multivariate logistic regression models. Conclusion The main risk factor for stridor after extubation in our population was duration ...

Sedation with dexmedetomidine or clonidine does not reduce the time to successful extubation compared with propofol in ...

Objective To compare the epidemiological profiles of patients who experienced extubation failure with those who achieved success and to evaluate the impact of extubation failure on total mechanical ...

However, approximately 60% of extremely preterm infants experience ‘extubation failure’ and require reintubation. While CPAP pressures of 5–8 cm H2O are commonly used, the optimal CPAP pressure is ...

Extubation occurs from a low level of ventilatory support or after an extubation readiness test (ERT) (see later in this review). Unlike in adults, it seems it is common practice to extubate ...
