pubmed:abstractText
Intensive care unit patients are at particular risk of respiratory failure after major abdominal surgery. Non-invasive ventilation or application of continuous positive airway pressure through a face mask may stabilise respiratory function and avoid the need for endotracheal re-intubation. However; there are various contraindications to non-invasive ventilation and/or tracheal re-intubation, such as recent oesophageal anastomosis, anastomotic leakage or tracheal stenting for tracheo-oesophageal fistula. A specific management strategy consisting of continuous intratracheal jet ventilation to support spontaneous respiratory function is described in two patients with contraindications to non-invasive ventilation or mask continuous positive airway pressure after major oesophageal surgery.
