Increased occurrence of tracheal intubation-associated events during nights and weekends in the PICU.
Little is known about how the incidence of tracheal intubation-associated events is affected by the time of day, day of the week, or presence of in-hospital attending-level intensivists. After analyzing 5,096 tracheal intubation courses from the prospective multicenter National Emergency Airway Registry for Children, the researchers found that a higher occurrence of tracheal intubation-associated events was observed during nights and weekends, due primarily to emergent intubations.
