An observational study to determine the risk factor for unplanned extubation or removal of catheter in the intensive care unit - An observational study to determine the risk factor for unplanned extubation or removal of catheter in the intensive care unit

Of the 82 patients enrolled, upper limb movements were observed in 49 (60%) patients with risk behaviors in 15 (18%) patients (Fig. 1a). There were 331 total movements with 27 (8%) risk movements such as grabbing the intubation tube (n=26) or catheter (n=1). No-risk movements were classified into reaction (n=268; 81%), expression (n=16; 5%), and activity (n=20; 6%).
