This study is for adults in the intensive care unit (ICU) who have been on a breathing machine (mechanical ventilation) for at least 24 hours. It compares two ways to help you breathe during a "spontaneous breathing trial" (SBT), which is a test to see if you can breathe on your own. The two methods are called Pressure Support Ventilation (PSV) and Automatic Tube Compensation (ATC). Researchers want to see which method leads to more successful removal of the breathing tube (extubation). To join, you must be 18 or older and meet certain screening criteria. The main goals are to see if you need to be re-intubated or if death occurs within 48 hours after the breathing tube is removed. The current status of this study is unclear.
