No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Laboratory studies suggest extubation with positive pressure because it reduces the volume of secretions filtered into the distal airway. The aim of this non inferiority study is to evaluate the safety of the extubation technique under positive pressure with respect to the traditional technique (with suction and without positive pressure in the airways).

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Positive pressure extubation
