Ultrasound for ventilator weaning in adults.
Mechanical ventilation is associated with many risks such as barotrauma, ventilator-associated pneumonia, and ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction. Delay in weaning from mechanical ventilation increases these risks, and prolonged weaning has been

Abstract Hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS) is associated with increased waitlist mortality in liver transplantation (LT) candidates. Children with HPS are granted Model for End‐Stage Liver Disease (MELD)/Pediatric End‐Stage Liver Disease (PELD) exception points for waitlist prioritization in the United States based on criterion developed for adults.

Psychophysiological Determinants of Repeated Ventilator Weaning Failure: An Explanatory Model
Background The adverse effects of a failed ventilator weaning trial on the subsequent weaning attempts are not well understood. Objectives To examine physiological and psychological factors that may be predictive of risk for repeated weaning ...

An Overview of the Predictor Standard Tools for Patient Weaning from Mechanical Ventilation
Most patients staying in the intensive care unit (ICU) require respiratory support through a ventilator. Since prolonged mechanical ventilation and weaning from the ventilator without criteria or at the inappropriate time can result in many ...

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

Weaning From Mechanical Ventilation
In this review, traditional weaning parameters, integrative indexes, and experimental methods of predicting weaning outcomes have been reviewed. All have limitations; however, judicious application of these parameters may guide clinical decisions regarding timing of weaning trials.
