Complications during retention: catheter obstruction, catheter dislodgement, catheter misplacement into unilateral main bronchus, choking, bronchospasm, improper suctioning practices. Complications at extubation: laryngospasm, foreign body obstruction, tracheal atrophy. Complications after extubation: pharyngolaryngitis, laryngeal edema or subglottic edema, vocal cord paralysis, lung infection, tracheal stenosis.
