Abstrakt: A prospective study of all unplanned adult extubations was conducted for 4 months period in four intensive care units (ICUs) of a community hospital. Our objective was to document the incidence of unplanned extubations, discern possible variables predictive of occurrence and outcome, and formulate preventive measures and guidelines for reintubation.
