Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Based on previous published study by Asai et al, the investigators proposed that a sample size of 300 patients will enable the group to report the complication rates with adequate precision in terms of a sufficiently narrow two-sided 95% confidence interval. Potentially eligible subjects for this study are all adult patients who undergo eye and head-and-neck surgery as well as deep extubation at the end of the surgery per the discretion of the anesthesiologist assigned to the case. Deep extubation is the default extubation method practiced at MEE. Therefore, there will be a sufficient number of potentially eligible subjects to meet the target enrollment goals.

Who may be able to join

  • Adult men and women who present to MEE for eye and head-and-neck surgery and undergo deep extubation will be included.

Who cannot join

  • The study does not exclude anyone from the study.

About this study

Official title: Perioperative Complications of Deep Extubation in Adults Undergoing Head and Neck Surgery at Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary.

The investigators propose a prospective observational cohort study in order to investigate the perioperative respiratory complications of deep extubation in adults undergoing eye and head-and-neck surgery at Massachusetts Eye and Ear. Data pertaining to perioperative respiratory complications from adult patients presenting to MEE for eye and head and neck surgery who undergo deep extubation will be collected for this study.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Desaturation

    Desaturation to less than 95% for more than 10 seconds;

    Measured: 1 hour

  2. Cough

    Episodes of persistent cough, defined as 3 or more consecutive coughs

    Measured: 1 hour

  3. Laryngospasm

    Episodes of complete or partial laryngospasm

    Measured: 1 hour

  4. Bronchospasm

    Episodes of bronchospasm

    Measured: 1 hour

  5. Negative pressure pulmonary edema

    Incidence of negative pressure pulmonary edema

    Measured: 1 hour

  6. Interventions

    Obstruction that requires intubation or maneuvers, oral airway or jaw thrust

    Measured: 1 hour

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Length of time from the end of surgery to leaving the OR

    Measured: 1 hour
