STEER Weaning Protocol:Liberating Patients From Mechanical Ventilation

UCSD Medical Center
Weaning From Mechanical Ventilation
Can account for >40% of time on ventilator1
Clinical judgment often inaccurate in predicting the success of extubation.
Reintubation is associated with increase in mortality and morbidity
1. Esteban Chest 106:1188-93 1994
Purposes of Weaning
Assure medical team that patient can tolerate extubation
Train respiratory muscles
Good News! Simpler Is Better.
Old, Complex Way Daily clinical estimate of
weaning potential Weaning parameters:
VE < 15, TV < 4ml/kg,
f < 38, MIP > 15 Randomly reduce IMV and
PS
New, Simple Way Try nearly everyone daily
f/TV < 105
Intermittent “sprints” based on bedside assessment
STEER Weaning Protocol
Help clinician determine which class patient is in at any given time.
Give clinician more complete information
Continuously update data
STEER
Screen for contraindications
Trial of minimum support breathing
Exercise according to protocol
Evaluate progress
Report information to the clinicians.

Neuromuscular blockers PEEP > 5 FiO2 > 45% or Sa02 < 92% Hemodynamic instability Increased ICP Sedation drip (Propofol, Ativan, Versed, etc.) Unstable angina Temp > 39 Physician has requested patient not to be weaned
Who Is Ready to Wean?
300 ventilated patients were screened daily for four criteria.1 » pO2 / FiO2 > 200
» PEEP < 5» adequate cough» no pressors or sedative drips
Randomized: physician vs protocol weaning
1. Ely NEJM 335(21):1864-9 1996
Trial of Minimum Support Breathing
Who Is Ready to Wean?
Traditional Method Physicians not told
of screening results. Weaning entirely
based on clinical judgment.
Protocol Method “Sprint” (CPAP) for 1
min, if tolerated... Sprint for 2 hours, if
tolerated… “Doctor, your patient is
ready to be extubated.”

Predictors of Successful Extubation
required VE (on ventilator)– VCO2, VO2
– Vd/Vt
A-a gradient Compliance
– Vt/(PIP-PEEP)
Negative inspiratory force– strength
Weaning Predictors: combining concepts
Vital Capacity– strength, compliance
Tidal Volume– strength, compliance
Respiratory Frequency– strength, compliance, ventilatory requirements
Minute Ventilation– strength, compliance, ventilatory requirements
Frequency/Tidal Volume Ratio
strength, compliance, ventilatory requirements high number (>105): rapid, shallow breathing
» capacity to breath >> work of breathing
Multiple “weaning parameters” measured on 100 consecutive ventilated adults
Extubation by clinicians blinded to results

Exercise According to Protocol
Sprint Procedure: Class 1 Patients
Two hour CPAP sprint with f/Vt < 100» extubation success highly probable» physician notified, asked re: extubation
Fatigue during 2 hour CPAP» repeat sprint after a 4-6 hour rest
Stop sprint if not tolerated for…..
BP < 90 or > 170 systolic RR > 35 X 5 minutes Change in HR of 20% or > 130 BPM SaO2 < 90/ or within MD specified limits 50% reduction in minute volume Temp > 39 Arrhythmias* (Contact MD/RN. Don’t
repeat sprint until MD approval)

Training Respiratory Muscles
partially unload muscles so that they may grow stronger with exercise
muscle fatigue (intended goal) muscle exhaustion (setback) clinican becomes coach
Sprint Procedure: Class 2
Work intervals alternating with rest Place patient on CPAP/PS 20 and
decrease PS until RR is in the mid 20’s Sprint BID X 30 min on the same PS Gradually increase respiratory load
» decreasing support until CPAP is tolerated Move to Class 1

Comparison of Four Weaning Methods1
132 vent’d adults who did not tolerate 2 hour sprints were randomized to:» Twice daily reduction in IMV rate» Twice daily reduction in PS level
» Twice daily “sprints” (CPAP 5cm H20)
» Once daily “sprint” (CPAP 5cm H20)

Evaluate Progress
Documenting Sprint Progress
Evaluate after last sprint of the day
Was best sprint > than best sprint 48 hours ago?
Which sprint trial is hardest?
1) PS = 15, IMV=10, duration=2 hours
2) PS = 10, IMV=15, duration=2 hours
3) PS = 5, IMV=10, duration= 30 min
4) PS = 10, IMV=5, duration=30 min
5) PS = 20, IMV=0, duration=2 hours
6) PS = 10, IMV=0, duration=1 hour
7) PS = 7, IMV=0, duration=30 min
How to Assess Progress
Weaning technique must be simple Technique must not change daily Duration of sprint must be constant
Which sprint trial is hardest?
1) PS = 20, IMV=0, duration=30 min
2) PS = 15, IMV=0, duration=30 min
3) PS = 10, IMV=0, duration=30 min
4) PS = 5, IMV=0, duration=30 min
