A History of Success Weaning Patients Off Ventilators

Barlow Respiratory Hospital is a high-volume regional weaning center. Outcome from trauma, surgery, and a variety of other medical conditions has been shown to be positively affected by providing treatment at facilities experiencing a high volume of patients with those conditions. Outcome is influenced by patient volume, with better outcome occurring in high-volume centers. For over four decades, Barlow Respiratory Hospital has focused on serving mechanically ventilated chronically critically ill patients with medically complex conditions. Recognized nationally and internationally for its published outcomes and TIPS© weaning protocol, and well-established expertise, Barlow Respiratory Hospital remains a leader among long-term acute care hospitals.
