Heart Rate Variability During Weaning From Mechanical Ventilation

NCT00851825 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 30

Last updated 2009-05-08

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The discontinuation of mechanical ventilation (MV) and the recovery of spontaneous breathing can lead to important cardiovascular alterations due to changes in the intrathoracic pressure. The autonomic modulation assessed through heart rate variability (HRV) during weaning from MV and its impact on cardiorespiratory variables has not been well elucidated yet. To evaluate the effect of T-tube (TT) and pressure support ventilation (PSV) during weaning from MV on cardiorespiratory variables and heart rate variability.
