Abstract
BACKGROUND: Patients with severe neurological conditions are at high risk during withdrawal and extubation, so it is important to establish a model that can quantitatively predict the risk of this procedure. METHODS: By analyzing the data of patients with traumatic brain injury and tracheal intubation in the ICU of the affiliated hospital of Hangzhou Normal University, a total of 200 patients were included, of which 140 were in the modeling group and 60 were in the validation group. Through binary logistic regression analysis, 8 independent risk factors closely related to the success of extubation were screened out, including age ≥ 65 years old, APACHE II score ≥ 15 points, combined chronic pulmonary disease, GCS score < 8 points, oxygenation index <300, cough reflex, sputum suction frequency, and swallowing function. RESULTS: Based on these factors, a risk prediction scoring model for extubation was constructed with a critical value of 18 points. The AUC of the model was 0.832, the overall prediction accuracy was 81.5%, the specificity was 81.6%, and the sensitivity was 84.1%. The data of the validation group showed that the AUC of the model was 0.763, the overall prediction accuracy was 79.8%, the specificity was 84.8%, and the sensitivity was 64.0%. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that the extubation risk prediction model constructed through quantitative scoring has good predictive accuracy and can provide a scientific basis for clinical practice, helping to assess and predict extubation risk, thereby improving the success rate of extubation and improving patient prognosis.
