Summary

This study followed 156 critically ill patients who had a tracheostomy to help them come off a breathing machine (ventilator). Researchers measured how long the weaning process took, how often patients felt short of breath or uncomfortable, and how this affected their quality of life and mental health afterward. The goal was to better understand and improve care for these patients.
