Secondary

MeasureTime frame
patients having bronchospasm, tachypnea with respiratory rate greater than 24 per min, SpO2 less than 92 % at room air during the first 60 min after extubation, in the PACU. patients requiring airway support (viz. airway opening manoeuvres, oral or nasal airway insertion, CPAP / BiPAP, endotracheal intubation) during the first 60 min after extubation, in the PACU. patients having heart rate greater than 100/min or less than 60/min, systolic blood pressure plus minus 20% of baseline, diastolic blood pressure plus minus 20% of baseline, and mean blood pressure plus minus 20% of baseline, after administration of reversal agent, continuing to PACU for the first 60 min post-extubation. Timepoint: till 60 mins after extubation
