Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of routine versus on-demand nebulization of acetylcysteine and salbutamol in reducing airway secretions in critically ill patients on invasive ventilation.
- Results showed no significant difference in the accumulation of secretions between the two strategies, with the maximum reduction in the cross-sectional area of the endotracheal tube being similar for both groups.
- The conclusion highlights that routine nebulization did not have a beneficial effect on decreasing airway secretions during invasive ventilation in adult critically ill patients.
