Abstract

Liberating patients from mechanical ventilation is a necessity that nurses and multidisciplinary teams need to focus on. Delayed assessment liberating readiness has resulted in increased morbidity and mortality. The length of hospital stays, longer days on a ventilator of patients, and patient satisfaction among families and health workers are reduced. The purpose of this paper is to highlight specific preparation issues in the pre-liberating phase of ventilator care. This article presents content related to liberating of ventilators, specific preparation for liberating from mechanical ventilators in critically ill patients, i.e., evaluation of the strength of the respiratory muscles using the criteria according to the indications of the respiratory muscles., screening for preparation for liberating from ventilators, guidelines for liberating from mechanical ventilators, and the nursing roles in preparing for liberating from mechanical ventilation in critically ill patients. The author hopes that this paper will be useful for professional nurses to apply to nurse critically ill patients using ventilators to increase the quality of patient care in the future.
