Abstract
Endotracheal intubation is one of the commonest procedures performed in the intensive care unit. Once the requirement of the tube is no longer present and the patient has recovered the ability to maintain airway, clear secretions and has adequate gas exchange, extubation is done. Occasionally, the patients can develop postextubation stridor. This CME article describes the various causes of postextubation stridor, its clinical features, diagnosis and management.
