head: ACCOUNTABILITY OF NURSING PROFESSIONALS: WEANING Accountability of Nursing Professionals: Weaning from Mechanical Ventilation Samantha Madrid Grand Canyon University Abstract This paper will discuss the weaning of patients off of a mechanical ventilator. It will look at the problems associated with prolonged intubation vs. premature extubation, and what healthcare professionals can do to assess a patients readiness to begin the weaning process. A patient care scenario will be given

After the visit to "Wayne Bradley's" farm, Peter Singer and Jim Mason share some very important information on the experience with farming. Singer and Mason together examine negative impacts that individual Americans food choices have upon farmers, they believe should be the basis of dietary basics. The negative effects of much agriculture on animals, human health, and our environment as they have little faith that the American government will actually take the initiative to force the food industry

I grew up in a home where nothing artificial was allowed, only organic and natural. If it came from a garden or a field it usually made it to our table. We drank hot tea every day, there was never any popcorn, pizza, or soda. I still remember the first time I had a slice of pizza and an ice cold glass of Coca-Cola in 1990. It was like a whole new world had opened up before me. I had fallen in love with soda. I loved the sugary sweet stuff, with its carbonation dancing down your throat sip by sip

Evolution is the change of traits of a species over several generations. A famous biologist named Charles Darwin, theorized that evolution happens by natural selection. Many people believe that evolution requires millions of years but scientists believe that evolution can occur rather quickly. In Today’s world, we have better health care, food, shelter and hygiene. Some might question if our advanced medicine and technology can lead to a stop in evolution, but in fact we are still evolving according

The Use of a weaning and extubation protocol to facilitate effective weaning and extubation from mechanical ventilation in patients suffering from traumatic injuries: A non-randomized experimental trial comparing a prospective to retrospective cohort. The transition from Mechanical Ventilation support to spontaneous breathing define as a weaning and extubation in Critical ill patient, most of the time determine the patient hospital length of stay in intensive care unit, which leads most of the

Weaning Weaning is a critical element in the care of intubated patients that deals with the entire technique of liberating the patient from mechanical ventilatory support as well as from the endotracheal tube. It is the transition of ventilatory support to spontaneous breathing (30). Although it can be achieved easily in many patients, it may prove to be difficult in up to 25% of critically ill patients who have been on ventilation for a prolonged period of time (31–33). Shorter the time in MV

Protocolized versus non-protocolized weaning for reducing the duration of mechanical ventilation (MV) in criti-cally ill adult patients. It will systematically evaluate the work’s effectiveness. The nature of the study recommended in the paper was to assess the effects of protocolized weaning from mechanical ventilation on the total duration of mechanical ventilation for critically ill adults and ascertain differences between protocolized and non-protocolized weaning in terms of adverse events, mortality

In another mixed method study to explore the knowledge of the UK weaning guidelines and the sources of weaning advice used by UK first-time mothers (Moore et al, 2012), findings were quite similar to the first study. The use of elements from both quantitative and qualitative research approaches have been found to contribute positively to the research process (Johnson et al. 2007). This was the main methodological strength of this study together with its size although there remains the argument that
