Int Wound J 2024; 21:e14741. [PMID: 38414304 PMCID: PMC10899797 DOI: 10.1111/iwj.14741] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2024] [Revised: 01/14/2024] [Accepted: 01/21/2024] [Indexed: 02/29/2024] Open
Abstract
At present, it is still controversial whether patients in intensive care unit (ICU) use tracheal intubation with or without cuff. This paper evaluates the effect of tracheal intubation with and without cuff on overall complication rate of patients with intubation in ICU. The database of PubMed, Embase, Conchrane Library and Web of Science was searched by computer, and the clinical research on intubation with and without cuff in ICU was collected. The time range was from the database establishment to November 2023. Literature was independently screened, information was extracted, and quality was assessed by two researchers. Finally, there were nine studies included, with 11 068 patients (7391 in cuff group and 3677 in non-cuff group). The results showed that the overall complication rate of cuff group was significantly lower than that of non-cuff group, and that of cuff group (RR = 0.53, p < 0.01). In addition, compared with the non-cuff group, the cuff group had a lower number of tracheal intubation changes [RR = 0.05, p < 0.01] and a lower incidence of aspiration pneumonia (RR = 0.45, p = 0.01). Compared with the non-cuff group, the cuff group had a higher incidence of oral mucosal ulcers and pharyngitis (RR = 1.99, p = 0.04), while the cuff group had a lower incidence of laryngeal edema (RR = 0.39, p < 0.01). In ICU intubation patients, the use of cuffs reduces overall complication rate in comparison to patients without cuffs. Therefore, patients with intubation in ICU can recommend tracheal intubation with cuff.

Predictors of post-extubation stridor in patients on mechanical ventilation: a prospective observational study. Sci Rep 2021; 11:19993. [PMID: 34620954 PMCID: PMC8497593 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-99501-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2021] [Accepted: 09/24/2021] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
The cuff leak test (CLT) has been widely accepted as a simple and noninvasive method for predicting post-extubation stridor (PES). However, its accuracy and clinical impact remain uncertain. We aimed to evaluate the reliability of CLT and to assess the impact of pre-extubation variables on the incidence of PES. A prospective observational study was performed on adult critically ill patients who required mechanical ventilation for more than 24 h. Patients were extubated after the successful spontaneous breathing trial, and CLT was conducted before extubation. Of the 191 patients studied, 26 (13.6%) were deemed positive through CLT. PES developed in 19 patients (9.9%) and resulted in a higher reintubation rate (8.1% vs. 52.6%, p < 0.001) and longer intensive care unit stay (8 [4.5-14] vs. 12 [8-30.5] days, p = 0.01) than patients without PES. The incidence of PES and post-extubation outcomes were similar in patients with both positive and negative CLT results. Compared with patients without PES, patients with PES had longer durations of endotracheal intubation and required endotracheal suctioning more frequently during the 24-h period prior to extubation. After adjusting for confounding factors, frequent endotracheal suctioning more than 15 times per day was associated with an adjusted odds ratio of 2.97 (95% confidence interval, 1.01-8.77) for PES. In conclusion, frequent endotracheal suctioning before extubation was a significant PES predictor in critically ill patients. Further investigations of its impact on the incidence of PES and patient outcomes are warranted.

Abstract
RATIONALE Laryngeal edema is a known complication of endotracheal intubation that may cause airway obstruction upon extubation. The only test available to predict this complication is the cuff leak test (CLT). OBJECTIVE Given the uncertainty of the CLT's clinical utility, we conducted the Cuff Leak Test and Airway Obstruction in Mechanically Ventilated ICU Patients (COMIC) pilot study to examine the feasibility of undertaking a larger trial. METHODS COMIC is a multicentred, parallel-group randomised trial performed in Canada, Saudi Arabia, and Poland. We enrolled mechanically ventilated adults admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) who were deemed ready for extubation. Those allocated to the intervention arm had the results of their CLT communicated to the healthcare team, who then decided to proceed with extubation or not. In those randomised to the control arm, the CLT results were not communicated to the healthcare team and patients were extubated, regardless of the CLT result. The primary outcomes focused on feasibility. RESULTS One hundred patients (56 in the intervention and 44 in the control arm) were enrolled. All feasibility criteria were met including: 1) Recruitment rate of 7.6 patients/month; 2) Consent rate of 88.3% (95% confidence interval [CI] 82.1-94.5%); and 3) Protocol adherence of 98% (95% CI 95-100%). There were two episodes of clinically significant stridor in the intervention group, and four patients that required reintubation in each group. CONCLUSION The results of the COMIC pilot trial support the feasibility of a larger trial to determine the effect of the CLT on reintubation and clinically important stridor. Clinical trial registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03372707). Registered December 14th, 2017, https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03372707.
