New treatment option for Extubation
Official title Modified Deep Extubation vs. Standard Awake Extubation
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06318715
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The proposed study is to compare a modified DE technique, which is regularly used for low-risk patients by staff anesthesiologists at our institution, to a standard awake extubation. This modified deep extubation (mDE) occurs while the patient is still anaesthetized but at a lower dose of anaesthetic gas than previously described, and balanced with long acting opioids to attenuate the airway reaction.
