Summary

The purpose of the present study is to investigate the effectiveness of inspiratory muscle training and nasal high flow oxygen in patients with difficult weaning and high-risk for re-intubation. The hypothesis of the study is that starting inspiratory muscle training once patients are awake and co-operative along with the application of nasal high flow oxygen immediately after extubation will have a beneficial effect in preventive re-intubation in these high-risk patients.

Conditions

  • High-risk for Reintubation Patients
  • Weaning Outcome

Interventions

OTHER

Inspiratory muscle Training and Nasal High Flow

Inspiratory muscle Training will be used to increase respiratory muscle strength. Initial settings will depend on patient's maximal inspiratory pressure. Nasal High Flow will support respiratory muscles and thus reduce the work of breathing. By this mechanism the endurance of the respiratory muscles will increase in parallel with the strenght

DEVICE

Inspiratory muscle training and Venturi mask

Inspiratory muscle Training will be used to increase respiratory muscle strength. Initial settings will depend on patient's maximal inspiratory pressure. Venturi mask is usually applied after extubation in every day clinical practice for oxygen supplementation
