In November 4, 2016, a 1 year and 3 months old male patient with face and neck scald complicated with severe scald of oropharynx was admitted to Guangzhou Red Cross Hospital 1 hour after injury. The child developed upper respiratory tract obstruction 2 hours after injury, therefore tracheotomy and intubation were performed immediately to establish an artificial airway, and symptomatic treatments such as anti-infection, fluid replacement, and dressing change were conducted. On the 10th day after injury, the child had difficult breathing during the test tube blocking before extubation, and it was difficult to extubate. Symptomatic treatments such as ventilator assisted ventilation and strengthened anti-infection were continued. On the 17th day after injury, extubation plan was adjusted. Thirty minutes before extubation, phenobarbital was injected intramuscularly for sedation, and atropine was used to reduce airway secretions, after which extubation was successful. After 21 days of treatment, the child was cured and discharged. In the treatment of this case, high attention was paid to the important influence of children′s mental factors among causes of difficult extubation, which provided a reference for clinical treatment of extubation in children with tracheal tube after tracheotomy.
