Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1. Patients who are ventilated mechanically after the procedure of craniotomy. 2. Patients who are on oxygen support, the amount of oxygen being delivered will depend upon the condition of the patient and it’s saturation. 3. Patients who have undergone tracheostomy. 4. Patients who have undergone craniotomy for reasons such as: a) Cerebral aneurysm b) Stereotactic aspiration c) Extended bifrontal craniotomy followed by bone flap replacement. d) Minimal invasive supra-orbital craniotomy e) Removal of blood clot from brain vesels. f) Drainage of brain abcess g) Repairing of fractures of the skull

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Patients who have severe fatal infections following the surgery. 2. Patients who have an unstable vital such as high blood pressure, irregular tachycardia and bradycardia, low saturation level besides proper mechanical ventilation, exaggerated pulse and heart rate monitoring, etc. 3. Patients whose family is not cooperative for the treatment. 4. Patients with secondary infections like ventilator-acquired pneumonia. 5. Patients who have undergone craniotomy for the following reasons: a) Patients whose brain lobes are removed i.e. lobectomy of the brain segments. b) Patients who were diagnosed with meningioma. c) Patients with malignant skull base tumor. d) Patients who have undergone retro-sigmoid keyhole craniotomy. e) Patients diagnosed with acoustic neuroma. f) Patients who have undergone orbitozygomatic craniotomy. g) Patients with translabryinthine craniotomy. h) Patients who undergo craniotomy for the process of repair of tear in the duramater. i) Patients with implanted stimulators. 6.
