Summary

WEAN SAFE (WorldwidE AssessmeNt of Separation of pAtients From ventilatory assistancE) is a multi-centre, prospective, observational, 4-week inception cohort study being carried out by the Acute Respiratory Failure section of ESICM. Weaning represents a challenge for intensivists and patients spend a considerable amount of time in being liberated from mechanical ventilation. While guidelines do exist on the classification of weaning, a recent study has shown that these may not be applicable to all patients. Moreover, different practices exist in regard to weaning procedures. WEAN SAFE will prospectively assess the burden of, management and spectrum of approaches to weaning from ventilation, in patients that require invasive mechanical ventilation for any reason, for a time period of at least 24 hours.
