SBT FLASHCARDS
RCP160
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| purpose of SBT | this protocol will be used to facilitate timely liberation from mechanical ventilation using the spontaneous breathing trial (SBT) and the prolonged spontaneous breathing trial (SPBT) |
| What does an RT look for in SBT ? | Observe the patient under conditions of respiratory load that would stimulate those following extubation. |
| Indications of patients suitable for SBT. | Lung disease is stable/resolved. Low FiO2 (<0.5) & PEEP (<5-8 cm H2O). Haemodynamic stability. Spontaneous breaths. |
| What is the first method/step of SBT ? | Be conducted while the patient is still connected to the vent circuit, or the patient can be removed from the circuit to O2. |
| What is the second method/step of SBT ? | When using the vent a PS of 5-7 cmH2O and 1-5 cm H2O PEEP, the PT will overcome increased WOB. ETT. |
| What is the third Method/step of SBT ? | Pt should be on minimal vent settings in order to continue with SBT. |
| What is the forth method/step of SBT ? | Initial trial should last 30-120 minutes |
| What is the fifth method/step of SBT ? | If pt is not cleared by 120 min SBT should be considered a fail. |
| What is the last method/step to SBT ? | The shorter the intubation time the shorter the SBT required. |
| What RR ranges are indicated to stop SBT ? | RR > 38 bpm for 5 min or < 6 bpm |
| What SPO2 range is indicated to stop SBT ? | to stop SBT ? SpO2 < 92% |
| What tidal volume range is indicated to stop SBT ? | Vt < 325 mL |
| What HR range is indicated to stop SBT ? | HR > 140 or HR < 60 |
| What BP range is indicated to stop SBT ? | 40 mm Hg above baseline |
