Hi, it’s Patrik Hutzel from intensivecarehotline.com with another quick tip for families in intensive care.

So yesterday I had a question from a reader, Sherry and Sherry asks, what should we expect after extubation?

So to give you a little bit of context, Sherry’s father has been in intensive care now for about 10 days with the pneumonia, and he’s finally ready for extubation. He’s been intubated for about 10 days after pneumonia and induced coma. And now he’s coming out of the induced coma. The pneumonia has slowly cleared up and he’s now ready for extubation.

So just to give some definitions here, extubation stands for removal of the breathing tube. The breathing tube is in the mouth also known as an endotracheal tube.

So what should you expect after extubation?

Look, it really depends on how long a critically ill patient has been intubated for. Intubation again means the insertion of a breathing tube or an endotracheal tube. So how long, what should you expect?

So what you should expect, if it’s short term ventilation, like let’s just say less than 72 hours, you should have your loved one awake, breathing by themselves with a little bit of oxygen support and they should get mobilized.

They should get chest physical therapy or just physiotherapy. They should do some breathing exercises.
