      Аннотация: Acute respiratory failure frequently necessitates the introduction of endotracheal tube to maintain airway patency and for mechanical ventilation. Endotracheal tube insertion is a common life saving procedure seen in patientsadmitted in intensive care units and wards.In critical care units, multisystem organ failure patients have highest mortality. Endotracheal intubation being common and important procedure, it is essential to determine whether factors like age , sex and nature of primary illness in intubated patients have any role in determining their clinical course and outcome. Many studies have been done till date in neuroparalytic patients especially in GBS patients which studied factors affecting respiratory failure and requirement for endotracheal intubation and factors affecting outcome.The aim of this study is to compare which patient should be intubated electively or emergency basis and to compare the outcome & complication of each group. This study is also intended to correlate the factors which affect outcome of intubation age, sex, nature of underlying disease. The timing of doing the intubation procedure has also been evaluated as a prognostic parameter.
