Weaning and extubation in extremely preterm infants from mechanical ventilation / 中国小儿急救医学

ABSTRACT

Available evidence strongly suggests that early weaning and extubation are desirable, but our ability to predict the point at which can be accomplished safely in extremely preterm remains limited.Extubation failure remains frequent and may carry significant short and long-term consequences.Improved tools for predicting successful extubation in this population are currently being explored with the hope of reducing extubation failure and the attendant risks of reintubation.This review summarized and analyzed the related problems in the peri-extubation period of extremely preterm, in order to provide reference for successful extubation and weaning of ventilatory as soon as possible.
