Conditions

Patients with mechanical ventilation in surgical intensive care unit.

Interventions

High oxygen concentration Group High Flow Nasal Cannula is placed just before extubation with a fraction of inspired oxygen of 100% and a current flow of 40L/minute. Patients are manually ventilated
PaO2/FiO2 ratio is measured at 15 minutes before extubation, and the value of adjusted oxygen concentration is calculated so that the PaO2 should become 100mmHg. The same fraction of inspired oxygen a

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: The adult patients in our surgical intensive care unit who are going to have endtrachal tubes extubated.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: The patients who are not managed by anesthesiologists, those who undergo tracheotomy, those who use non-invasive positive ventilation after extubation and those who cannot use High Flow Nasal Cannula after extubation.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary Outcome The degree of atelectasis formation in one, three and five days after endtracheal extubation which are evaluated by blinded radiologists using the radiological atelectasis score.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary Outcome The incidence of the re-intubation and the initiation of of non-invasive positive airway ventilation within 5 days after extubation. Duration of intensive care unit. PaO2/FiO2 ratio in 15 minutes, 1 hour, 12 hours and 24 hours after extubation. Degree of SpO2 just after extubation (one to 15 minutes).
