mechanical ventilation weaning phase patients with metabolic alkalosis
Brief summary
Metabolic alkalosis(MA) is common metabolic disorder in ICU setting. MA could be cause of weaning failure or delay by depression of respiratory center. The purpose of this study is to evaluate that correction of MA by administration of acetazolamide facilitates weaning of mechanical ventilation.
Interventions
If ABGA is pH ≥ 7.43 & HCO3- ≥ 26mEq/L at 7am, they will receive acetazolamide 500mg via IV q 24h. If ABGA is pH ≤ 7.35 at 7am, acetazolamide will skip.
They will receive saline 50ml via IV q 24h.
