A retrospective multicenter study of operating room extubation and extubation timing after cardiac surgery.

Background: In an effort to enhance recovery after cardiac surgery, intraoperative extubation has been targeted as possibly beneficial. This multicenter cohort study aimed to assess this by evaluating the outcomes of operating room (OR) extubation versus extubation within 6 hours of intensive care unit (ICU) arrival (early ICU extubation). Furthermore, we assessed time to ICU extubation and mortality and morbidity.

We aimed to explore experiences with such programmes for communities affected by fragile X-associated conditions.
