Study Summary
Patients requiring the use of artificial ventilation (also called mechanical ventilation) for more than 21 days account for more than 37% of all ICU costs. As such, these patients are now transferred to centers that specialize in weaning patients from the respirator; these units are referred to as long-term acute care (LTAC) facilities. Despite the increase of LTAC facilities, research on the fastest method for disconnecting the patient from the respirator is lacking. In addition, little information is available regarding the long-term survival and quality of life after a prolonged course of artificial ventilation. The purpose of this study is to determine the fastest method for disconnecting the patient from the respirator at a LTAC facility and its effect on long-term survival and quality of life.
