Abstract
An increasing number of patients require prolonged weaning from mechanical ventilation as a result of advanced age, patient comorbidities, technical progress in surgery and intensive care medicine. The data of the WeanNet register show that more than half (64%) of patients transferred from the intensive care unit (ICU) to a specialized weaning center could definitely be weaned from the respirator. Weaning failure was associated with prolonged ventilation prior to transfer to a weaning center, low body mass index, pre-existing neuromuscular diseases and advanced age. The number of patients with out of hospital ventilation who had to be re-hospitalized because of ventilation control or as part of emergency management quadrupled in Germany between 2006 and 2016. Invasive out-of-hospital ventilation and long-term noninvasive ventilation are associated with a significant loss of autonomy and with low quality of life. Therefore, the initiation must be carefully reviewed and regularly re-evaluated in the context of patient comorbidities and, if necessary, decisions should be made with respect to changing treatment targets. Specialized weaning centers have been established for patients in whom weaning on the ICU was unsuccessful. In cases of persisting weaning failure the adequate transition to out-of-hospital ventilation should be managed by a weaning unit. Weaning centers are responsible for outpatient invasive or noninvasive ventilation strategies and control of treatment quality. Depending on the infrastructure and networking of the respective weaning center, it is basically also possible to provide outpatient care for clinically stable patients in a cooperation model together with pulmonologists in private practice experienced in respiratory medicine. © Springer Medizin Verlag GmbH, ein Teil von Springer Nature 2020.Entities:
