“…[41] Another study, which included 1661 patients treated with MV in Spain, also found that older patients (≥75 years) had a significantly higher ICU mortality than younger patients without any differences in the duration MV. [42] Consistent with the above research, studies conducted in the USA [5] and Brazil [43] also concluded that age was an independent predictor of mortality in patients given MV. An advantage of the present study was that the sample size was sufficiently large to allow a stratified analysis of the factors affecting survival in patients receiving MV in the ICU.…”

“…Both experience and the medical literature available confirm that not only age, but also diseases defined by a low level of conscience, and many other factors can reduce the possibilities of exceeding prolonged courses on mechanical ventilation. 17 , 18 Just as an example, age and comorbidities are two factors that are taken into consideration during the selection of candidates eligible to receive trasplants. 19 , 20 Actually this criterion is not considered utilitarian and is widely accepted by all.…”
