Discontinuing mechanical ventilation and removing the artificial airway as soonas possible reduces the risk of Ventilator -induced lung injury, nosocomial pneumonia, airway traumafrom the endotracheal tube, and unnecessary sedation, but premature Ventilator -discontinuation orextubation can cause ventilatory muscle fatigue, gas exchange failure, and loss of airway protection.
that as much as 42% of the time a medical patient spends on a mechanical ventilator is during the withdrawal pro-cess1 and that percentage is likely to be much higher with a patient who has a more slowly resolving lung process.
