How do i safely transport the critically ill patient?

2015, Journal of Emergency MedicineCitation Excerpt :After successful endotracheal intubation, the endotracheal tube must be secured to prevent movements of the tube that may result in extubation (3). Unplanned extubation has been reported in many patients in the context of critical care, but very little research has examined the frequency of this in the emergency department or in the context of resuscitation (4–6). Activities that involve patient movement are known to increase the risk of unintentional extubation, and it seems likely that patients intubated during chest compressions exhibit a high risk of accidental extubation.

2012, Critical Care Nursing Clinics of North AmericaCitation Excerpt :Approximately 31% to 78% will require reintubation after a UE due to inability to clear pulmonary secretions and meet ventilation/oxygenation demands.53,55 These patients have increased mortality rates,1,41,55 as well as higher rates of in-hospital complications and up to two times longer hospital length of stay.24 A conservative approach and initial supportive care are favorable when addressing UE.
