Participant Flow

All ICU patients were breathing spontaneously, had respiratory failure of various pathophysiological mechanisms, with impaired cough reflex

Of the 30 patients screened during the run-in period between May 2014 and September 2014 they received nasotracheal suction all. 10 of them required for pilot study and 20 for the main study. The pilot study was designated as a separate study and the participants was not included in this record.
