Post-extubation stridor in Down's syndrome.
Laryngeal oedema, giving rise to stridor, is a recognized although rare complication following extubation of the trachea in children. It was our clinical impression that children with Down's syndrome, in particular, had a tendency to develop obstruction of the airway following operation. In Down's syndrome there are many abnormalities which affect the face and skull: those affect' ing the airwa...
متن کاملPost extubation stridor the call for objectivity.
In this issue of Indian Pediatrics, Sinha, et al.(1) have reported the results of a single center randomized controlled trial evaluating aerosolized L-epinephrine vs budesonide for the treatment of post-extubation stridor. While the benefits of intravenous corticosteroids on postextubation stridor are still unclear(2), the authors propose inhaled steroids may provide similar action to intraveno...
متن کاملNegative pressure post-tracheal extubation alveolar hemorrhage.
N egative pressure pulmonary edema is an uncommon complication of extubation of the trachea (>0.1%) mostly caused by laryngospasm (1). Upper airway obstruction from glottis closure leads to marked inspiratory efforts, which generate very negative intrathoracic pressure. This may cause pulmonary edema (1,2) and, rarely, hemoptysis (3,4). This report is the first to document both bronchoscopic an...
متن کاملTracheal extubation.
Tracheal extubation in both the critical care and anesthesia setting is not only an important milestone for patient recovery, but also a procedure that carries a considerable risk of complication or failure. Mechanical ventilation is associated with significant complications that are time-dependent in nature, with a longer duration of intubation resulting in a higher incidence of complications,...
متن کاملManaging tracheal extubation in infants with stridor and congenital neuraxial anomalies
Stridor is a serious complication of congenital neuraxial anomalies, which though, can get completely resolved with early neurosurgical correction of the anomaly. However, stridor relief may or may not be achieved soon after surgery. Persistent postoperative stridor can potentially cause extubation failure that may be difficult to handle in small children. There are no extubation guidelines for...
