suter [353]

The factors would the nurse identify as affecting the anxiety level of patients admitted to the intensive care unit is pain, intubation and immobilization .

<h3>What is meant by intubation?</h3>

A medical professional will intubate a patient by inserting a tube into their mouth or nose and then into their trachea, or windpipe. The tube maintains the trachea's opening, allowing air to pass through. A device that distributes air or oxygen can be connected to the tube.

Now, as a general rule, an endotracheal tube or breathing tube is typically left in your loved one's throat or larynx for up to two weeks at most, unless there are specific and uncommon conditions.

As a result of intubation, the majority of people only experience minor side effects including a sore throat and hoarseness. Some people don't even know they were intubated because they exhibit no symptoms.

To learn more about intubation refer to:
