Weaning From Mechanical Ventilation

International Anesthesiology Clinics, 1997
Use of mechanical ventilation is associated with several major complications despite its lifesaving potential. Timely discontinuation of mechanical ventilation is critical to control of duration of intensive care unit stay and reduction of complications associated with mechanical ventilation.

Ventilator Weaning and Extubation

Critical Care Clinics
Increasing evidence supports specific approaches to liberate patients from invasive ventilation including the use of liberation protocols, inspiratory assistance during spontaneous breathing trials (SBTs), early extubation of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease to noninvasive ventilation, and prophylactic use of noninvasive support ...

Weaning from Mechanical Ventilation

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1991
An understanding of respiratory physiology is helpful when weaning a patient from mechanical ventilation. Various criteria are available that assess pulmonary function and the patient's ability to breathe spontaneously. The majority of patients are weaned without difficulty, but a small percentage will require careful evaluation.

WEANING FROM MECHANICAL VENTILATION

Critical Care Clinics, 1998
For the ventilator-dependent patient, weaning should be accomplished by withdrawing support safely, efficaciously, and efficiently. Success depends largely on physiologic determinants of respiratory system function, avoidance of ventilator-associated complications, and attention to patient readiness.

Modes to Facilitate Ventilator Weaning

Respiratory Care, 2012
Weaning comprises 40 percent of the duration of mechanical ventilation. Protocols to reduce weaning time and to identify candidates at the earliest possible moment have been introduced to reduce complications and costs. Increased demand for mechanical ventilation, an increase in the number of patients requiring prolonged ventilation, and resource ...

Weaning from Mechanical Ventilation

Critical Care Clinics, 1990
Although 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.
