The effectiveness of pressure support ventilation and T‐piece in differing duration among weaning patients: A systematic review and network meta‐analysis

In comprehensive consideration of four outcomes, regarding SBT strategies, 30-min PSV was superior in simple-to-wean patients. Besides, 120-min T-piece and 120-min PSV are more likely to achieve a lower reintubation rate. Thus, the impact of duration is more significant among patients who have a high risk of reintubation. It is still unclear whether the SBTs affect the outcome of mortality; further studies may need to explore the underlying mechanism.
