The investigators are currently completing a data collection to try to optimize pediatric patients' preoperative screening, in the setting of an upper respiratory infection.
The objectives of this study are to evaluate various extubation criteria and their predictive value for successful extubation in non-cardiac surgical procedures. To evaluate the predictive value of room air oxygen and an original preoperative URI questionnaire in pediatric patients with URI or URI symptoms.

The rate of successful extubation in children with at least 3 of the five criteria present
The 5 criteria (facial grimace, eye opening, conjugate gaze, purposeful movement, and tidal volume \> 5 cc/kg)
Time frame: Day 1
Rate of participants with an extubation requiring intervention
The quality of extubation will be graded as successful, intervention required or major intervention required
Time frame: Day 1
Rate of participants with an extubation requiring major intervention
The quality of extubation will be graded as successful, intervention required or major intervention required
Time frame: Day 1
Rate of participants with a successful extubation
The quality of extubation will be graded as successful, intervention required or major intervention required
Time frame: Day 1
Rate of on time and anticipated discharge from the hospital
Time frame: Up to 5 days after discharge
Rate of patients seeking additional care following discharge for respiratory related symptoms
Time frame: Up to 5 days after discharge
Preoperative room air oxygen saturation
Time frame: Day 1
Rate of extubation success per the number of factors present at time of extubation
Rate of success at the presence of 3 to 6 predictors (eye opening, facial grimace, purposeful movement, conjugate gaze, tidal volume \> 5 cc/kg, and ETCO2\<56 mmHg) at time of extubation
