The optimal extubating moment is still a challenge in clinical practice. Respiratory pattern variability analysis in patients assisted through mechanical ventilation to identify this optimal moment could contribute to this process. This work proposes...
Weaning from mechanical ventilation covers the process of liberating the patient from mechanical support and removing the associated endotracheal tube. The management of weaning from mechanical ventilation comprises a significant proportion of the ca...
BACKGROUND: Twenty-five to 40% of patients pass a spontaneous breathing trial (SBT) but fail to wean from mechanical ventilation. There is no single appropriate and convenient predictor or method that can help clinicians to accurately predict weaning...
The advancement of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) has revolutionized data acquisition and processing in critical care settings. Given the pivotal role of ventilators, accurately predicting extubation outcomes is essential to optimize patient c...
BACKGROUND: Long-term ventilator-dependent patients often face problems such as decreased quality of life, increased mortality, and increased medical costs. Respiratory therapists must perform complex and time-consuming ventilator weaning assessments...

Mechanical ventilation is crucial for critically ill patients in ICUs, requiring accurate weaning and extubations timing for optimal outcomes. Current prediction models struggle with generalizability across datasets like MIMIC-IV and eICU-CRD. We pro...
This study aims to construct a neural network to predict weaning difficulty among planned extubation patients in intensive care units.This observational cohort study was conducted in eight adult ICUs in a medical center about adult patients experienc...
