Impact of pressure support ventilation duration after a spontaneous breathing trial on reintubation rates in critically ill subjects: a retrospective study
PSV duration after SBT did not significantly affect reintubation rates in the overall population. While short-term PSV showed potential benefits in specific subgroups, particularly COPD patients, direct extubation after successful SBT appears safe for most patients and may reduce ICU length of stay. These findings suggest that extubation strategies should be individualized based on patient characteristics rather than applying extended PSV periods universally.
