Summary

Weaning from mechanical ventilation post congenital cardiac surgery is often challenging. It is well known that not all patients can be early extubated, although most are suitable for early postoperative weaning and extubating despite complex operative procedures. With advances in anaesthesia management, cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), and surgical techniques, the trend of 'fast tracking', and early extubating of pediatrics postcardiac surgery seems to be feasible. Unnecessary prolonged mechanical ventilation increases the complication risks as airway trauma, ventilator associated pneumonia, and increased hospital stay
