Prospective evaluation of a decision support system providing advice on pressure support from states of over- and under-support

چکیده
Introduction Providing appropriate pressure support (PS) is a balance of avoiding over-support with risk of muscle atrophy and prolonged weaning, and under-support with risk of patient discomfort and stress. The Beacon Caresystem (Mermaid Care, Denmark) advises on PS using physiological models of lung mechanics, respiratory drive, acid-base status and muscle function and clinical preference functions quantifying risk of muscle atrophy, patient stress, and lung trauma. Mathematical models are tuned to measurements allowing advice to be patient specific.
