Weaning from Mechanical Ventilation
Critical Care Clinics, 1990Although the majority of patients can be easily weaned from mechanical ventilation, a substantial minority pose considerable difficulty. These patients account for a disproportionate amount of health care costs, and they pose enormous clinical, economic, and ethical problems.

While mechanical ventilation may be necessary to support ventilation and gas exchange, prolonged time on the ventilator is associated with significant complications, including lung injury, infections, and neuromuscular weakness. Therefore, in patients deemed to no longer require ventilatory support, it is important to discontinue mechanical ventilation

A Computer-controlled Ventilator Weaning System
Chest, 1991The purpose of this study was to determine if a computer-directed weaning system could wean patients with complex medical problems from mechanical ventilation and appropriately respond to signs of respiratory failure more effectively than traditional physician-directed weaning methods.

Ventilatory failure, ventilator support, and ventilator weaning.
Comprehensive Physiology, 2012The development of acute ventilatory failure represents an inability of the respiratory control system to maintain a level of respiratory motor output to cope with the metabolic demands of the body. The level of respiratory motor output is also the main determinant of the degree of respiratory distress experienced by such patients.

Ventilator Modes Used in Weaning
Chest, 2001Weaning techniques include spontaneous breathing trials (SBTs), pressure-support ventilation (PSV), and synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation (SIMV). SBTs can be conducted using one of several approaches, including T-piece breathing, low-level continuous positive airway pressure, low-level PSV, or setting the ventilator to flow-triggering ...
