aIntubation to speaking: time from initial intubation until the tracheostomy cuff was deflated, with a speaking valve in place, for two consecutive days
bIntubation to liberation: time from the initial intubation until the patient was breathing unassisted for 48 consecutive hours
cValues for patients 3–17 only
GBS = Guillain-Barre syndrome; MVA = motor vehicle accident; SCI = spinal cord injury. SVT = speaking valve trial
