Evaluation of cough peak expiratory flow as a predictor of successful mechanical ventilation discontinuation: a narrative review of the literature
A crucial step in the transition from mechanical ventilation to extubation is the successful performance of a spontaneous breathing trial (SBT). The American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP) Guidelines recommend removal of the endotracheal tube upon successful completion of a SBT. However, this does not guarantee successful extubation as there remains a risk of re-intubation. Guidelines have ...
متن کاملUnplanned extubation in the ICU: a marker of quality assurance of mechanical ventilation
One of the most frequent complications associated with endotracheal intubation itself in intensive care units is unplanned extubation, which represents a potentially serious complication given that many patients may need reintubation while in poor condition. This scenario may account for an increase in morbidity and even in mortality. To be able to compare the rates of unplanned extubation in c...

متن کاملAdaptive Support Ventilation From Intubation to Extubation: A Word of Caution.
In a recent issue of CHEST (June 2015), we read with interest the randomized controlled trial (RCT) by Kirakli et al comparing adaptive support ventilation (ASV) with pressure assist/control ventilation (P-ACV) for the entire duration of mechanical ventilation (MV) in a cohort of 229 patients in the medical ICU. The study showed a shorter duration of the weaning process and total MV in the ASV ...
