  • Title: Risk factors predicting laryngeal injury in intubated neonates.
    Author: Fan LL, Flynn JW, Pathak DR.
    Journal: Crit Care Med; 1983 Jun; 11(6):431-3. PubMed ID: 6851600.
    Abstract:
    We evaluated 95 extubated neonates to determine if certain risk factors could predict the development of laryngeal injury. Risk factors were recorded prospectively during the intubation period and correlated with laryngeal injury determined by laryngoscopy after extubation. Duration of intubation greater than or equal to 7 days and 3 or more intubations significantly predicted injury.
