Noninvasive Ventilation Weaning Protocol in COPD

Impact of Noninvasive Ventilation Weaning Protocol on Outcome of Patients With Acute Exacerbation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 21 Aug 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) has revolutionized the management of patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) with hypercapnic respiratory failure (HcRF). NIV use has been shown to reduce the need for endotracheal intubation, hospital and intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay, and mortality. Multiple studies have been conducted on weaning strategies among patients requiring invasive mechanical ventilation. As a result of these studies, definite criteria and protocols have been laid down for weaning from invasive mechanical ventilation. However, no such data are available for the withdrawal of NIV. Evidence-based reviews suggest that protocols to manage the weaning and liberation of subjects from Mechanical Ventilation could reduce the time that subjects spend receiving mechanical ventilation. However, no such data about protocolized withdrawal of NIV are available.
