Prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV) has been proven to cause physiological and psychological trauma for patients. Hence, it is a great challenge for health care providers to facilitate PMV patients weaning from the ventilator. Comprehension of the underline factors leading to the PMV would help to develop the effective intervention and facilitate weaning from mechanical ventilation. This review is started at describing the definition and classification of the ventilator weaning, and its related factors of weaning failure, and further critiquing and synthesizing the prior published evidence-based nursing-led physiological and psychological interventions (e.g., early rehabilitation and music therapy). We anticipate this review can provide the guidance for health care providers to deal weaning difficulty in PMV patients and shorten their length of mechanical ventilation. |
