Brief Summary

Mechanical ventilation is essential in the management of patients in Intensive Care. The approach to patients with prolonged weaning is challenging.In this context, it is vital to implement "diaphragmatic protection" strategies, which consist of programming the level of ventilator assistance focused on sustaining the muscular effort within an objective range. The reference method for measuring inspiratory effort is the Pressure-Time Product (PTP) of the esophagus. Recently, Bertoni et al. proposed the measurement of Occlusion Pressure as a non-invasive method, without the need to assess esophageal pressure, to estimate the magnitude of the effort and program assistance. Although it is a validated measurement for quantifying effort, it does not consider the duration of the effort performed by the patient, as well as the respiratory rate, two fundamental variables in terms of tolerance to the load. Therefore, the investigators propose the following study that will seek to validate the measurement of PTP in from the Occlusion Pressure, but considering inspiratory time and respiratory rate to obtain PTP per breath and per minute.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Airway Occlusion Pressure

    An inspiratory pressure will be set to obtain a muscular pressure value of 8 to 12 cmH2O. This phase will be called PSV100%. After 15 minutes, the level of assistance will be modified by 50%, up or down, according to the result of the randomization, and vice versa, always considering the initial value. Each of these phases will be called PSV150% and PSV50% respectively, and will last 15 minutes. During the last 3 minutes, 3 end-expiratory occlusion at a rate of 1 maneuver per minute will be performed, in order to obtain the airway Occlusion Pressure.

    At the end of the study, estimated in July 2024

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Esophageal Pressure Time product per breath (PTPESOF-br) and per minute (PTPESOF-min)

    At the end of the study, estimated in July 2024

Study Arms (1)

Patients with prolonged weaning

Patients who have failed more than 3 spontaneous breathing trials, in pressure support ventilation, with hemodynamic and metabolic stability, and a regular and stable ventilatory pattern.

Diagnostic Test: End expiratory occlusion maneuver

Interventions

An end expiratory occlusion maneuver will be performed during pressure support ventilation in patients with prolonged weaning.
