WOB
The work of breathing (WOB) can be acquired as an additional weaning indica
-
tor in the form of a periodic manoeuvre. The energy expended for respiration
(∫ pressure x volume) is normally determined by means of a properly located
oesophageal catheter. Similar to the determination of WOB in the spontaneous
respiration mode PAPS, an approximate WOB value can also be determined with
-
out oesophageal pressure measurement and its course over time can be assessed.
After activation of the manoeuvre, its frequency and the diameter of the en-
dotracheal tube or tracheostomy tube need to be specified. The percentage for
compensation of the flow and airway resistances can be adjusted to match the
clinical situation.
Published guidance values:
Adults: 0.3–0.6 J/litre
The parameters POB, POB spont., WOB vent. and WOB spont. are permanently
measured and the value measured last is always displayed. (However, this applies
to POB and POB spont. only in the PAPS ventilation mode)
