A number of factors can help to identify patients who are at greatest risk for postextubation UAO. Three randomized controlled trials Research into detection of UAO, with the ETT in place, has demonstrate that prophylactic corticosteroids decrease the risk for recently focused on using the quantitative cuff leak test [6]. postextubation UAO and probably the need for re-intubation. During this maneuver the patient breathes on assist control ventilation, the endotracheal cuff is deflated, and the Extubation failure (the need for re-intubation) is associated difference between inspired and expired tidal volume is with increased intensive care unit and hospital mortality, compared. An obstructed upper airway results in similar increased length of stay in the intensive care unit and inspiratory and expiratory volumes, whereas a patent airway hospital, greater need for tracheostomy and for long-term results in a substantial difference as a large volume of gas acute care, and increased costs. Underlying severity of escapes around the tube. This quantitative cuff leak can be illness, premorbid health status, and complications directly reported as either a percentage of inspired tidal volume or as associated with re-intubation fail to explain the adverse an absolute cuff leak volume (CLV). Previous investigators outcomes seen with extubation failure. Clinical deterioration have found that the risk for postextubation stridor is increased between the time of extubation and the re-establishment of when CLV is less than approximately 12% to 25% of inspired ventilatory support may provide the best explanation. volume or an absolute value of less than 110 to 130 ml Therefore, preventing extubation failure has the potential to [2,6-9]. improve outcome. Although previous studies conducted in pediatric patients The study reported by Lee and coworkers [1] is one of a found that corticosteroids reduce the prevalence of post- series of recent investigations examining whether cortico- extubation UAO by nearly 40% and may reduce the need for steroids can prevent postextubation upper airway obstruction re-intubation [10], earlier controlled trials in mechanically (UAO), which is a common cause of extubation failure. ventilated adults did not corroborate those findings [11]. Intubation and the endotracheal tube (ETT) may cause Francois and colleagues [12] recently compared 20 mg laryngotracheal injury, resulting in inflammation, mucosal methylprednisolone (given every 4 hours for 12 hours before ulceration, edema, or granuloma formation. This can lead to extubation) with placebo in nearly 700 adults patients who glottic or subglottic narrowing, which manifests as stridor, had been intubated for at least 36 hours. Corticosteroid respiratory distress, or respiratory failure after removal of the pretreatment was associated with decreased risk for post- ETT. Factors associated with increased risk for post- extubation UAO (3% versus 22%), need for re-intubation (4% extubation UAO include female sex (probably resulting from versus 8%), and need for re-intubation secondary to UAO small airway size), trauma patient, age above 80 years, (0.3% versus 4%). The number needed to treat (NNT) was excessively mobile or overly large ETT size, ratio of ETT size eight to prevent one case of stridor and 26 to prevent one to laryngeal diameter above 45%, ratio of patient height to case of re-intubation. Cheng and colleagues [2] used a CLV = cuff leak volume; ETT = endotracheal tube; NNT = number needed to treat; UAO = upper airway obstruction. Page 1 of 2 (page number not for citation purposes)

Another approach is to study patients at high risk for postextubation UAO. Patients identify first a high-risk cohort based on clinical factors (for randomly assigned to methylprednisolone (40 mg every instance, age, sex, tube size, and so on) and then to apply 6 hours for four doses) were less likely either to experience CLV to determine which patients should receive cortico- stridor (7% versus 30%) or to require re-intubation (7% steroids before extubation. versus 19%) than were those receiving placebo.

Although a short course of corticosteroids may be relatively safe, further study is warranted. This author believes the focus should continue to be on targeting patients at greatest risk. Although the study by Francois and coworkers [12] examined an ‘unselected’ cohort, the 22% incidence of postextubation UAO suggests a high risk group. Using the CLV can help to identify a cohort at greater risk, but the sensitivity and specificity of the test is suboptimal. Using this test alone to determine need for prophylactic corticosteroids will result in an unnecessary 12 to 24 hour prolongation of intubation for Page 2 of 2 (page number not for citation purposes)
