Study Population

Patients in prolonged weaning (Group 3 by Boles) with NYHA I-II, who come to the Department of Intensive Care Medicine RTWH Aachen University, will be recruited in the study. Recruitment will be performed in accordance to the inculsion and exclusion criteria.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • legal Age (≥18 years)
  • written informed consent Prior to study participation
  • patient in prolonged weaning with NYHA I-II and an actual positive Ventilator Screening test:

    1. PaO2 ≥ 60 mmHg at FiO2 ≤ 0.4
    2. PEEP ≤ 8 cmH2O
    3. Glasgow Coma Scale > 13
    4. Temp. < 38°C
    5. Hb > 80-100 g/L
    6. less requirement on catecholamines (<0.1µg/kg/min)
  • and on these patients are already performed a spontaneous breathing trial with following result:

    1. abortion this spontaneous breathing trial < 30min, but possible > 10min
    2. reason for an abortion was NOT hypercapnia

Exclusion Criteria:

  • weaning patients are assigned on Group 1-2
  • patient with heart failure (NYHA III-IV) and/ or other cardiac comorbidity
  • acute NSTEMI (non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction)
  • pregnancy and breast-feeding
