High‐flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy for respiratory management after postoperative re‐intubation/re‐extubation in patients with trisomy 18 and trisomy 13: Two case reports
Abstract We present two cases of general anesthesia in children with 18, 13 trisomy. One patient had difficulty with intubation and had to be reintubated postoperatively, another developed postoperative acute respiratory distress syndrome.

| Summary: | Abstract We present two cases of general anesthesia in children with 18, 13 trisomy. One patient had difficulty with intubation and had to be reintubated postoperatively, another developed postoperative acute respiratory distress syndrome. The use of postoperative high‐flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy to avoid reintubation is considered a feasible strategy. |
