SCCM Resource Library-Readiness for Extubation Beyond the SBT

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The speaker discusses extubation strategies beyond spontaneous breathing trials (SBT) in critically ill patients. They emphasize the importance of assessing respiratory muscle strength, such as PI max, sedation levels, neurological status, and secretion clearance. The presentation highlights the lack of randomized controlled trials for many practices, noting reliance on observational studies. Protocolized sedation is found beneficial for certain outcomes, though specific protocols aren't prescribed. The use of non-invasive respiratory support post-extubation is recommended, with CPAP or NIV being more effective than high-flow nasal cannula, especially for high-risk or infant patients.
