Ventilatory Failure

Part of the book series: Update in Intensive Care and Emergency Medicine ((UICM,volume 15))

Abstract

One of the aims of artificial substitution of ventilation is to recuperate spontaneous ventilation as early as possible and in the most optimal conditions. Withdrawal from artificial ventilation may appear simple, but is sometimes more difficult than maintaining mechanical ventilation (MV) itself according to the different options proposed in the literature [1–3]. The process of withdrawal from ventilation, or taking the decision to begin this process, is empirical in most cases [4].
