Brief Summary: This study investigates how different degrees of muscular unloading during mechanical ventilation impact endurance of succeeding spontaneous breathing trials
Detailed Description: Liberation from mechanical ventilation in difficult to wean patients is best accomplished by intermittent spontaneous breathing trials 1 Optimal respiratory muscle rest in-between breathing trials however has never been investigated

Using a crossover design patients are to be ventilated with complete and partial respiratory muscle unloading for a period of ten hours respectively Respiratory muscle activity is being monitored by oesophageal balloon technique using a commercially available System Avea Viasys Conshohocken PA USA Time of spontaneous breathing respiratory- and ABG parameters are being determined to characterize the course of each spontaneous breathing trial
