Abstract

We read with great interest the article by Aworanti, et al., about “Extubation strategies after esophageal atresia repair” with interest. We congratulate the authors for their study. In this study, the authors examined 46 patients who were operated for esophageal atresia over a 7-year period. Babies extubated within 24 h of surgery were classified as early extubation (n = 28), and babies intubated beyond the first 24 h were classified as delay extubation in their study. They found required re-intubation in 15 patients (32.6%) with 24 re intubation episodes.
