Abstract

 Background: Mechanical ventilation is a basic emergency and critical care medicine technique using a mechanical device (ventilator) to support the respiratory process. Once the cause of respiratory failure has resolved, weaning from mechanical ventilation should be considered as soon as possible. Weaning from the ventilator is a great challenge for emergency and critical care doctors. Objectives: To determine the weaning results on ventilated patients in the Emergency – Intensive Care Department. Materials and methods: A prospective study on 38 ventilated patients at Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy Hospital from 01/2023 to 03/2024. Results: The proportion of men and women was 50%. The average age was 73.79 ± 15.61, and the group over 80 years old accounted for 44.7%. The rate of successful weaning was 44.7%, and that of successful extubation group was 94.2%. Simple, difficult, and prolonged weaning groups had rates of 76.4%, 11.8%, and 11.8% respectively. Death or severe patients took the proportion of 57.9%. Pneumonia, accounting for 66.7%, was the main cause of ventilation in the weaning failure group. Conclusion:


The successful weaning rate is modest. The most common cause of ventilation in the group that failed to wean is pneumonia.
