Do asthma patients have to remain on a ventilator/ICU for 24hrs Post Op?

I read on a surgeon's website that anyone with lung disease will have to be intubated and kept on a ventilator in ICU for 24 hrs post op. Can anyone verify this or share their experiences? I searched, but couldn't find a specific post on this. Thanks in advance for the help!!
