Complications of intubation

W M Keane, J C Denneny, L D Rowe

    The Annals of Otology, Rhinology, and Laryngology

    Summary

    Endotracheal intubation using modern cuffed tubes is generally safe, but complications can still arise. These issues range from mechanical difficulties during the procedure to long-term epithelial trauma from the tube.

    Area of Science:

    • Anesthesiology
    • Critical Care Medicine
    • Otolaryngology

    Background:

    • Endotracheal intubation with low-pressure, high-volume cuffed tubes is a common procedure.
    • While generally safe, complications can occur even in optimal conditions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the complications associated with endotracheal intubation.
    • To categorize complications into immediate, early, and late.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of existing literature on endotracheal intubation complications.
    • Analysis of complication types and their timing.

    Main Results:

    • The majority of patients experience few complications with current intubation techniques.
    • Mechanical difficulties and mucosal injury are potential complications.
    • Complications are categorized based on their occurrence: immediate (during intubation/extubation), early, and late (long-term effects).

    Conclusions:

    • Endotracheal intubation is a safe procedure for most patients.
    • Awareness of potential mechanical and mucosal complications is crucial.
    • Understanding the timing of complications aids in patient management and prevention strategies.
