Key information

About this study

there is an increase of incidence of chronic obstructive lung disease associated respiratory failure which necessitates invasive mechanical ventilation. It is well known that one of the bundles for enhanced recovery of such cases is the daily interruption of sedation . Recently studies have demonstrated the feasibility of just using sedation for initiation of mechanical ventilation, then utilization of no sedation technique as a more this offers less side effects .
