Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Compare the change in pulmonary aeration during the test of weaning from mechanical ventilation (before, at the end, and 4-6 h after) between patients requiring re-ventilation before the 48th hour, and those weaned permanently.

    Time frame: before, at the end, and 4-6 h after

    Compare the change in pulmonary aeration during the test of weaning from mechanical ventilation (before, at the end, and 4-6 h after) between patients requiring re-ventilation before the 48th hour, and those weaned permanently.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Studying variations, during weaning from mechanical ventilation, of pressure of left ventricle filling (E / Ea) coupled with those of plasma BNP.

    Time frame: in the 4-6 early hours

    Studying variations, during weaning from mechanical ventilation, of pressure of left ventricle filling (E / Ea) coupled with those of plasma BNP.

  2. Assessing the effects of E / Ea and BNP variations on the success or failure in the 4-6 early hours.

    Time frame: in the 4-6 early hours.

    Assessing the effects of E / Ea and BNP variations on the success or failure in the 4-6 early hours.

  3. Compare the variations of lung ultrasound score during the test of the weaning from mechanical ventilation between patients failed the spontaneous breathing test (SBT) and those extubated after successful SBT.

    Time frame: in the 4-6 early hours

    Compare the variations of lung ultrasound score during the test of the weaning from mechanical ventilation between patients failed the spontaneous breathing test (SBT) and those extubated after successful SBT.

  4. Comparison of levels epithelial and endothelial markers

    Time frame: at h0, h1, h4, h6

  5. Constitution serum bank for epithelial (sRAGE) markers dosages

    Time frame: at h0, h1, h4, h6

  6. constitution serum bank for endothelial (angiopoietin) markers dosages

    Time frame: at h0, h1, h4, h6
