Abstract

The most common cause of unsuccessful weaning from mechanical ventilation is thought to be the failure of the respiratory muscle pump. The alterations in lung volume and intrathoracic pressure that occur during weaning can have detrimental effects on cardiovascular performance and lead to a decreased supply of oxygen to the overworked respiratory muscles. Thus, the complex interactions between the heart and the lung during spontaneous breathing can determine whether the patient can be weaned successfully.
