Laryngeal Edema Assessment by Cuff Leak Test and Ultrasound in ICU Patients and Its Relationship With Weaning Success

This study evaluates laryngeal edema in ICU patients during weaning from mechanical ventilation. It compares the cuff leak test and ultrasound-based laryngeal air column measurements in predicting weaning success. Ultrasound offers a non-invasive and real-time alternative for airway assessment. The study also examines post-extubation complications such as stridor, sore throat, dysphonia, and dysphagia.
