Global south ICUs under the microscope: new study tracks ventilator weaning practices
NCT ID NCT07337408
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will observe 900 adults in intensive care units (ICUs) in low- and middle-income countries to understand how doctors safely remove breathing tubes (weaning). Researchers will track patients for 7 days after extubation to see how often breathing tubes need to be reinserted or if patients die. The goal is to identify best practices and improve outcomes in these regions.
