Comparison of Physiological Responses to Spontaneous Breathing Trials with a T-Tube and Low-Level Pressure Support

Abstract: Previous studies have shown that spontaneous breathing trials (SBT) with a T-tube or low-level pressure support are comparable. However, low-level pressure support may overestimate the ability of a patient to sustain spontaneous breathing, resulting in premature extubation. Understanding factors contributing to different responses by patients to the two SBT methods aids in clarifying the limitation of using low-level pressure support for SBT. We performed a prospective observational study in 80 consecutive adu… Show more
