Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Objective: To describe the mechanical ventilation practices, mortality rate and associated factors among mechanically ventilated patients in Uganda's intensive care units.
Methodology: A prospective cohort study carried out in four ICUs in Uganda. All patients, 18 years and above initiated on mechanical ventilation will be recruited. Patients' data will be collected from the files and charts at initiation of mechanical ventilation. Patients will then be followed up for death / discharge within 28 days in ICU.
Data analysis: The primary outcome is all-cause mortality during ICU stay. Data will be summarised into means and standard deviations, medians and interquartile ranges and presented in tables, charts, cross-tabulations and graphs. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression will be used to determine factors associated with mortality.
Utility of results: The results from this study will be disseminated to the Ministry of Health and Makerere University in order to plan, standardise and form guidelines regarding mechanical ventilation practices in ICUs in Uganda.
