Adverse events - Oral/airway trauma
- Pneumothorax
- Cardiac arrest
- Death
- Other:

Assist Control/Volume Mode -Keep Plateau pressures (Pplat) Obstructive disease:: AC-Volume -Lack of knowledge/problem
TV 6-8 ml/kg (IBW) <30 cm H20 TV: 6-8ml/gkg solving skill
RR 10-12 -Consider incremental FiO2/ RR 6-10 -Alarm ignorance
IFR 60-80 l/min PEEP IFR 80-100l l/min -Relying on PIP, not Pplat
PEEP 0-5 PEEP 0 -underuse/overuse PEEP
Ventilation I:E 1:2 I:E 1:4/5 -inadequate sedation
FiO2 !00% FiO2: 100%

! ! !

-Clinical improvement -Low PSV (6-8 cm H20) if in doubt leave it in -Decision based on resources
-LOC (GCS 11-12T) -Normal RR -Not a difficult airway not patient condition
-muscle strength: cough, head -Adequate TV -Hemodynamically stable -Decision made without
Extubation lift 5s -PEEP<5 -No active ischemia knowledge of intubation
-minimal secretions -Fi02 <50% -Not combative difficulty
-PCO2<50 mm Hg -Lack of communication in
handover
! ! !

-Communicate directly to -Your patient until leave ED -Assuming your done once
consulting and managing -No extubation order unless intubated
services youre consulted -Accepting extubation plan
-Document airway -Travel to CT/floor with airway based on bed availability
