摘要
Specialist weaning units (SWUs) aim to liberate patients with complex weaning failure from mechanical ventilation and facilitate their discharge from the ICU. This retrospective service evaluation reports the outcomes of a SWU at Wythenshawe Hospital, Manchester between 2017 and 2019. In total, 75.0% (n = 33/44) of patients survived to hospital discharge. Of these patients, 72.7% (n = 24/33) were self-ventilating. Overall, 1-year survival was 68.2% (n = 30/44), whilst 5-year survival was 52.3% (n = 23/44). Whilst this study is relatively small, these findings are encouraging and further support the case for SWUs.
