Intervention group (1): Patient will receive 100% oxygen for two minutes by ventilator. Then the patient is disconnected from ventilator and suction will be done by sterile method from ventilator and
Intervention group (2): Patient will not be disconnected from the ventilator. In these patients the suction catheter goes through the endotracheal tube through Y-piece connector between endotracheal t

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Inclusion criteria: The Patient is placed under mechanical ventilation simply due to traumatic brain injuries or to subsequent secondary complications; The patient is in a coma and his GCS is less than 8; Endotracheal tube is used for patients in order to get airway; Endotracheal tube is merely through the mouth; They don’t take pain medications; Their livers and kidneys do not have trauma in the latest incident; They don’t take neuromuscular blockers; They need endotracheal tube secretion suctioning and patients don’t have severe face injuries. Exclusion criteria: The patient is brain-dead; They need to regain their suction before two hours; The existence of dangerous cardiac arrhythmias in monitoring patients; Any pain before suctioning; The use of painkillers or drugs on the stimulation of the patient’s upper airway secretions drainage and history of patients’ CPR after hospitalization.
