What this Trial Is About
Postoperative respiratory failure (PORF) remains a critical driver of morbidity, mortality, and incremental care costs in surgical populations. Traditional escalation often involves invasive mechanical ventilation, which is associated with ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP), prolonged intensive care unit (ICU) stays, and increased resource burden.
