About this study

The presence of endotracheal tube is associated with various fatal complications which are diagnosed mainly in post- extubation time. Those complications include laryngeal edema, laryngospasm, and post-extubation dysphagia which delay the complete recovery of critically ill patient. The clinical pathway is one of the excellent strategies that help the critical care staff to manage and control these complications

Inclusion criteria

  • Adult (>18 years)
  • orally intubated patients for the first time attached with MV for less than two weeks
  • with Glasgow coma scale (GCS) from 13-15.

Exclusion criteria

  • patients admitted with high risk for laryngeal edema,
  • difficult intubation,

  2. laryngospasm

    Time frame: 72 hours after extubation

    measured by four point scale. it composed from 4 grades, grade 0 indicates no laryngospasm, grade 3 indicates severe degree of laryngospasm.

  3. dysphagia

    Time frame: 72 hours after extubation

    measured by Gugging Swallowing Screen scale that it ranges from 0 -20. the high score indicates severe dysphagia
