Overview
Brief Summary
Weaning from mechanical ventilator is essential to liberate patients to normal life. Prolong weaning is defined as failure of 3 times spontaneous breath trial (SBT) and requiring more than 7 days weaning from mechanical ventilation after first SBT. higher unsuccessful rate of extubation and higher mortality rate. Possible reasons to cause prolong weaning could be attributed to intensive care unit acquired weakness (ICU-AW) and poor lung hygiene. In order to solve these two problems and increase the weaning rate, early mobilization (EM) and chest physiotherapy (CPT) are considered as possible strategy to attain the goal. According to previous articles, lacking of control group and small sample size made it difficult to confirm the true effect of EM and CPT on prolong weaning patients. Thus, the aims of this articles are discussing the influence from EM with CPT on weaning rate and other hospitalization outcomes with larger sample sizes and control group.
