Margaret Parker, MD, MCCM, speaks with Michael Gaies, MD, about the article, “Clinical Epidemiology of Extubation Failure in the Pediatric Cardiac ICU: A Report From the Pediatric Cardiac Critical Care Consortium,” published in the November 2015 issue of Pediatric Critical Care Medicine. Dr. Gaies is an Assistant Professor and works as a Cardiac Intensivist in the Division of Cardiology, Department of Pediatrics and Communicable Diseases at C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital and University of Michigan Medical School in Ann Arbor, MI. He also serves as the Executive Director of the Pediatric Cardiac Critical Care Consortium. In this article, Dr. Gaies and coauthors examine the epidemiology of extubation failure in the pediatric critical care environment and what factors may be predictive of failed extubations in order to better understand how to make decisions around individual patients and improve upon extubation practices.
