| description | Background
The withdrawal of ventilatory support is usually carried out in bed; sometimes patients can be extubated outside the usual position as in chair in special cases; benefiting early mobilization which is associated with reducing hospital stay and improving functionality.
Case Report
39-year-old female patient diagnosed with chronic kidney disease and requiring dialysis in the context of ventilatory failure due to emergency orotracheal intubation, after a favorable evolution, early mobilization was initiated and she was released from ventilatory support in a chair.
Conclusion
To date, out-of-bed extubation has not been associated with complications. In our case, it was successfully achieved by avoiding unnecessary bed rest and promoting proper posture. |
