Weaning from Postoperative Mechanical Ventilation

Modeling Post-Operative Respiratory State in Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Patients: A Method for Weaning Patients from Mechanical Ventilation.
This PhD research developed a model for real-time assessment of patient postoperative recovery and viability for weaning from postoperative mechanical ventilation.
Weaning from postoperative mechanical ventilation isa key process in surgical intensive care. According to the SCCM (Source: Society of Critical Care Medicine, 2006), ICU patients occupy only 10% of the inpatient beds, but account for almost 30% of the acute care hospital costs. A key aspect of care in ICUs relates to weaning from postoperative mechanical ventilation.
