Weaning from mechanical ventilation [PDF]
Weaning covers the entire process of liberating the patient from mechanical support and from the endotracheal tube. Many controversial questions remain concerning the best methods for conducting this process. An International Consensus Conference was held in April 2005 to provide recommendations regarding the management of this process.

Weaning from mechanical ventilation [PDF]
~~ Mechanical ventilation (MV) is the major life-support modality during respiratory failure. Once the illness that precipitated respiratory failure has resolved, MV can be dis~ontinued.~~ Practically, resolution of the lung injury that caused respiratory failure, and restoration of respiratory pump function may be slow, and are often incomplete at the

HEAD UP POSITION 30° - 45° FOR SUCCESSFUL VENTILATOR WEANING PROCESS IN INTENSIVE CARE UNIT
Introduction: Ventilator weaning is the process of transitioning a patient from ventilator support to independent breathing for more than 48 hours. A 30°-45°head-up position, where the patient's head is raised above the bed, with the body parallel to the
