Note: Endotracheal Intubation
To calculate the number of hours (duration) of
continuous mechanical ventilation during a
hospitalization, begin the count from the start of
the (endotracheal) intubation. The duration ends
with (endotracheal) extubation.
If a patient is intubated prior to admission, begin
counting the duration from the time of the
admission. If a patient is transferred (discharged)
while intubated, the duration would end at the time
of transfer (discharge).
For patients who begin on (endotracheal) intubation
and subsequently have a tracheostomy performed for
mechanical ventilation, the duration begins with the
(endotracheal) intubation and ends when the
mechanical ventilation is turned off (after the
weaning period).
Tracheostomy
To calculate the number of hours of continuous
mechanical ventilation during a hospitalization,
begin counting the duration when mechanical
ventilation is started. The duration ends when the
mechanical ventilator is turned off (after the
weaning period).
If a patient has received a tracheostomy prior to
admission and is on mechanical ventilation at the
time of admission, begin counting the duration from
the time of admission. If a patient is transferred
(discharged) while still on mechanical ventilation
via tracheostomy, the duration would end at the time
of the transfer (discharge).
