简要总结
Cough strength score will give true prediction of Extubation outcome
详细描述
Head trauma patients were evaluated for readiness to be weaned off mechanical ventilation. If they had completed an Spontaneous Breathing Trial (SBT) before extubation. To measure Semiquantitative Cough Strength Score (SCSS), the investigator will put the patients at 30° to 45°, measure SCSS, first. The investigator enhance the patient to cough with as much effort as, when the investigator disconnect the ventilator. The cough strength was scored from 0 to 5 as follows: 0 = no cough on command, 1 = audible movement of air through the endotracheal tube but no audible cough, 2 = weakly (barely) audible cough, 3 = clearly audible cough, 4 = stronger cough and 5 = multiple sequential strong coughs.

入选标准
- •The study included 80 adult male and female patients' their ages between 18-65 years admitted to trauma ICU with head trauma, on mechanical ventilation more than 24 hours and was ready to be weaned off from mechanical ventilation after successful spontaneous breathing trial and Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score > 8 before extubation
排除标准
- •Patients who had undergone tracheostomy before extubation, GCS ≤ 8, chest trauma (ribs fracture and lung contusion) and patients with chronic chest disease (Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, tuberculosis and cancer lung) were excluded from the study.
结局指标
主要结局
Extubation outcome (success or failure), is the patient reintubate again or not and it's correlation with the level of Cough Strength Score
时间窗: within 6 hours postextubation
The cough strength was scored from 0 to 5 as follows: 0 = no cough on command, 1 = audible movement of air through the endotracheal tube but no audible cough, 2 = weakly (barely) audible cough, 3 = clearly audible cough, 4 = stronger cough and 5 = multiple sequential strong coughs.
