Sažetak

Background and purpose: Reintubation in the intensive care unit is a critical event linked to increased morbidity, prolonged hospitalization, and higher mortality. It often results from respiratory muscle weakness, airway edema, neurological impairment, or cardiovascular instability. Patients requiring reintubation face elevated risks of ventilator-associated pneumonia, airway trauma, and hemodynamic instability. Preventive strategies such as careful extubation planning, noninvasive ventilation, high-flow nasal cannula, corticosteroids for airway edema, and optimized fluid management can help reduce reintubation rates. A structured, multidisciplinary approach is essential for improving extubation success and patient outcomes.
Conclusions: This review examines the causes, risk factors, and consequences of reintubation, along with strategies for prevention and management, emphasizing the importance of evidence-based weaning protocols and advanced monitoring techniques.
