Effectiveness of nonpharmacological interventions to prevent adverse events in the intensive care unit: A review of systematic reviews
2023, Australian Critical CareCitation Excerpt :The number of patients in the eligible studies ranged from 45432 to 336933 and was not reported or unknown in nine (24.3%) reviews. The included reviews covered 11 different AEs: ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) (11 SRs),33–43 delirium (six SRs),29,44–48 physical function deterioration (five SRs),32,49–52 reintubation (four SRs),53–56 medication error (three SRs),31,57,58 artificial airway occlusion or hospital-acquired pneumonia (two SRs),59,60 healthcare-associated infections (HAIs; two SRs),61,62 pressure injury (two SRs),30,63 and tube displacement or tube occlusion (two SRs).27,28,54 The total number of interventions evaluated was 27, and VAP was the most frequent AE studied with seven NPIs.
Factors associated with unplanned extubation in the Intensive Care Unit for adult patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis

2016, Journal of Emergency MedicineCitation Excerpt :After confirmation of infant tracheal tube placement, tracheal tube fixation is highly critical because even a small tracheal tube shift can result in accidental extubation or one-lung ventilation. In adult studies, securing the tracheal tube during the use of a tube holder, or wire anchoring the tube to the oral cavity, can reduce the incidence of unplanned extubation (11,12). However, there are few studies regarding the best tube fixation method for infant resuscitation.

2013, Journal of Critical CareCitation Excerpt :It is not possible to determine from the data gathered in the present study whether the variations are due to imprecise determinations of the AirWave system or inaccuracies of the comparator, ie, CXR. Endotracheal tube lumen obstruction or narrowing secondary to endoluminal secretions, tube kinking, or extrinsic compression (eg, patient biting) may go undetected for extended periods and/or result in adverse patient outcomes [10,23-25]. A promising feature of the AirWave system relies on real-time monitoring of ETT lumen patency.
Self/Unplanned Extubation. Safety, Surveillance, and Monitoring of the Mechanically Ventilated Patient
2012, Critical Care Nursing Clinics of North AmericaCitation Excerpt :With any ETT fixation method, health care providers must remain vigilant in maintaining the integrity of the oral mucosa and facial skin in order to prevent injury from excess/prolonged pressure on any given area. Commonly used methods for ETT fixation include commercial tube holder devices, various types of tape (cloth, plastic, paper, and so forth), circumferential versus face-only taping, and suturing or wiring the ETT to teeth/surrounding tissues; however, no single method has been demonstrated as superior.44 It has been shown that ensuring proper attention and consistency in the method of securing the ETT decreases UE.45
