Independent predictors and clinical predictive score of postanesthetic reintubation after general anesthesia: A time-matched, case control study.

Background And Aims: Postanesthetic reintubation is associated with increased morbidities and mortality; however, it can be reduced with defined predictors and using a score as a tool. This study aimed to identify independent predictors and develop a reliable predictive score.

Material And Methods: A retrospective, time-matched, case control study was conducted on patients who underwent general anesthesia between October 2017 and September 2021.
