Common questions
What does Spontaneous Breathing Trial Screening (SBT Readiness) do?
Use to check readiness criteria before an SBT and to interpret pass/fail to guide extubation.
How is the result calculated?
Assess readiness (resolving cause, adequate oxygenation on low support, hemodynamic stability, intact airway protection); perform SBT 30–120 min on minimal support or T-piece; pass → consider extubation; fail → resume support and address the cause.
Is this a substitute for clinical judgement?
No. All results are decision-support only, for licensed clinicians. They must be individualized to the whole patient and the latest guideline version.
