Comparison of Spontaneous Ventilation Time in Air Without Desaturation After Positive Pressure Extubation Versus Aspiration Extubation When Awakening From General Anesthesia

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Anesthesia, General
Interventions
Procedure: Positive pressure extubation
Procedure: Aspiration/suction extubation
Registration Number
NCT01323049
Lead Sponsor
Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nīmes
Brief Summary

The primary objective is to show that positive pressure extubation improves oxygenation immediately after extubation compared to extubation via "aspiration" by evaluating and comparing the onset time of desaturation during spontaneous ventilation during awakening following general anesthesia.
