Occurrence of pendelluft during ventilator weaning with T piece correlated with increased mortality in difficult-to-wean patients
BackgroundDifficult-to-wean patients, typically identified as those failing the initial spontaneous breathing trial (SBT), face elevated mortality...
-
Role of multidrug-resistant bacteria in weaning from invasive mechanical ventilation
BackgroundAlthough multidrug-resistant bacteria (MDR) are common in patients undergoing prolonged weaning, there is little data on their impact on...
-
Predictive values of ultrasonic diaphragm thickening fraction combined with integrative weaning index in weaning patients with mechanical ventilation: a retrospective study
ObjectiveWe aimed to explore the predictive values of ultrasonic diaphragm thickening fraction (DTF) combined with integrative weaning index (IWI) in...

Ultrasonographic evaluation of diaphragm thickness and excursion: correlation with weaning success in trauma patients: prospective cohort study
PurposeProlonged mechanical ventilation (MV) subjects multiple trauma patients to ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction. There is limited...

Role of diaphragmatic ultrasound in predicting weaning success from mechanical ventilation in pediatric intensive care unit
BackgroundWeaning off mechanical ventilation (MV) is a critical step in pediatric ICU; however, it lacks standardized criteria. Diaphragmatic...

The effect of planned presence of the family at the time of weaning on the length of weaning from mechanical ventilation in patients with brain injury admitted to intensive care units
BackgroundWeaning the patient from mechanical ventilation (MV) is one of the common treatments in intensive care units (ICU). Among the factors that...

Physiological adaptations during weaning from veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation
Veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V–V ECMO) has an established evidence base in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and has...
-
Outcomes of different pulmonary rehabilitation protocols in patients under mechanical ventilation with difficult weaning: a retrospective cohort study
BackgroundThe endeavor of liberating patients from ventilator dependence within respiratory care centers (RCCs) poses considerable challenges....

Patient-ventilator asynchrony as a predictor of weaning failure in mechanically ventilated COPD patients
BackgroundPatient-ventilator asynchrony is a common problem in mechanically ventilated patients. It is associated with adverse effects including...

Phrenic nerve stimulation to prevent diaphragmatic dysfunction and ventilator-induced lung injury
Side effects of mechanical ventilation, such as ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction (VIDD) and ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI), occur...
-
Weaning and extubation from neonatal mechanical ventilation: an evidenced-based review
Mechanical ventilation is a lifesaving treatment used to treat critical neonatal patients. It facilitates gas exchange, oxygenation, and CO2 removal....
-
Electrical Impedance Tomography as a monitoring tool during weaning from mechanical ventilation: an observational study during the spontaneous breathing trial
BackgroundProlonged weaning from mechanical ventilation is associated with poor clinical outcome. Therefore, choosing the right moment for weaning...

Weaning Outcomes in Patients with Brain Injury
BackgroundDespite the need for specific weaning strategies in neurological patients, evidence is generally insufficient or lacking. We aimed to...
-
Validation of rapid shallow breathing index displayed by the ventilator compared to the standard technique in patients with readiness for weaning
BackgroundRapid shallow breathing index (RSBI) is the most commonly used parameter for predicting weaning outcome. Measurement of RSBI by Wright...
-
NT-proBNP change is useful for predicting weaning failure from invasive mechanical ventilation among postsurgical patients: a retrospective, observational cohort study
BackgroundTo evaluate the predictive value of N-terminal prohormone B-type natriuretic peptide (NTproBNP) for weaning failure among patients...

Combined cardiac, lung, and diaphragm ultrasound for predicting weaning failure during spontaneous breathing trial
BackgroundWeaning from invasive mechanical ventilation (MV) is a complex and challenging process that involves multiple pathophysiological...
-
Effectiveness of diaphragmatic ultrasound as a predictor of successful weaning from mechanical ventilation: a systematic review and meta-analysis
BackgroundSeveral measurements have been used to predict the success of weaning from mechanical ventilation; however, their efficacy varies in...
