Summary

This study looked at 98 critically ill adults who had trouble coming off a ventilator. It compared two methods of a breathing test: one using a T-piece alone, and another combining pressure support with positive end-expiratory pressure. The goal was to see which approach helped patients successfully breathe on their own sooner without needing to go back on the ventilator within a week.
