Healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria: * Adult patients (≥18 years old) * Undergoing extubation of an endotracheal tube (including index extubation and re-extubations) after general anesthesia in the OR, out of OR anesthesia location or ICU * Undergoing extubation during the specified enrollment window Exclusion Criteria: * Patients will be excluded if the extubation is performed in the context of withdrawal of life support measures, * Patients will be excluded if the extubation is performed for tracheostomy decannulation For each patient who is not included, reasons for exclusion will be reported.

Primary outcome measure(s)

At least one of the following, occurring within 60minutes after extubation (composite outcome): i) Severe hypoxemia ii) Cardiac arrest iii) Need for airway management — Within 60 minutes after the end of extubation
The primary outcome will be the occurrence of at least one of the following (composite outcome) occurring within 60 minutes after the end of extubation: i) Severe hypoxemia (oxygen saturation as measured by pulse oximetry falls below SpO2 \< 80% for \> 5 minutes) ii) Cardiac arrest iii) Need for airway management (reintubation, insertion of a supraglottic airway, bag-mask ventilation).
