Discontinuation of ventilator work is assumed by patient.

Weaning Guidelines
Daily assessment of potential Spontaneous breathing trials (30-120 min) Stable support between SBTs Ability to protect airway Reverse causes of failure Weaning protocols for nonphysician Prolonged ventilation=slow gradual lengthening of SBTs
