Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of a computer-assisted ventilator weaning system (Drager Smartcare) to our current standard of care in the medical intensive care unit.

Primary Outcome

Duration of weaning was assessed as the time from the initiation of weaning (randomization) to the time of successful extubation (defined as 48 hours free of mechanical ventilation). Patients were followed for the duration of hospitalization and the time of weaning onset and successful liberation from the ventilator was noted.

Interventions

  • DEVICE Computer-assisted weaning program
  • BEHAVIORAL Standard of Care weaning
