  1. weaning The Discontinuation of Ventilatory Support By Adriana Adams and Cesar Mancillas

  2. What is Weaning? • Weaning is the gradual decrease in the transitional process from total ventilatory support to spontaneous breathing.

  3. Reasons for Mechanical Ventilation • RESPIRATORY FAILURE SECONDARY TO: • Hemodynamically Unstable • Airway Protection • Neuromuscular Disorders • Inadequate Ventilatory Capacity

  4. Methods of Weaning • SIMV/CPAP Mode • PSV • T-tube/ATC

  5. DAILY SCREENING • Resolved/Improved underlying problem • Awake, oriented, Responsive • Able to Cough • Adequate gas exchange • Off Sedations, vasopressor • Adequate hemoglobin levels • Hemodynamically Stable • Airway Patency • Ventilation Pump/Capacity adequacy

  6. Airway Patency Parameters • Maximal expiratory pressure • Peak Expiratory Flow • Cough Strength • Secretion volume • Suctioning frequency • Cuff leak test • Neurological Function(GCS):

  7. Physiological Parameters • Rate: <35bpm • Maximal Inspiratory Pressure: < -20cmH2O • RSBI: r/Vt= <100b/min • Vital Capacity: <10-15mL/kg(<15L/min)

  8. Adequate Oxygenation Parameters • PaO2: >60mmHg(at FiO2 of 50%) • PEEP: <5-8cmH2O • PaO2/FiO2: >200mmHg • PaO2/PAo2: >0.50 • P(A-a)O2: <350mmHg (FiO2max1) • %Qs/Qt: <20% • pH: >7.25 • PaCO2: Normal Level • SaO2: >90% • Hgb: 8-10g/dl

  9. Ventilatory Pump Parameters • Vt: >350ml(>4ml/kg) • Cd: >25ml/cmH2O • Cs: >35ml/cmH2O • Ve: <10L/min • Vd/Vt: <60%

  10. SIMV PROTOCOL • INITIAL SETTINGS • RR: 8/min( <2-4bpm/hr at least BID) until pt is stable at 0-5bpm for 2hrs. • PS: 25cmH2O(<2-4/hr) until pt is stable at 0-5cmH2O/min for 2hrs, followed by extubation. • *If no resp. disorders, use half hour intervals. • *Changes are made as tolerated by patient.

  11. T-PIECE Weaning • Pt may be removed from ventilator or use CPAP • T-Piece Trials: Progressive increase in length of time without ventilator support.(increments of 5-10min, then place back on ventilator for remainder of the hour. • Until pt is off the vent for 30 min. on and off for 30 min, and so on. • Use heated humidifier at desired FiO2(If 50%, consider extubation) • If stable for 2hrs, consider extubation. • Advantage CPAP use: available alarms, apnea back up settings, and able to monitor patients ventilatory capacity.

  12. Recognizing Weaning Failure • Tachypnea(>35bpm for >5min) • Hypoxemia(<90% saturation) • Tachycardia(>140bpm) • Bradycardia(If <heart rate by 20%) • Hypertension(>180mmHg) • Hypotension(<90mmHg) • Agitation, diaphoresis, anxiety, signs of >WOB
