Some patients may not tolerate the trial because of the respiratory load imposed by the endotracheal tube. Automatic tube compensation (ATC), specifically developed to overcome the resistance caused by the artificial airways, appears ideally suited for the weaning process. Was to To compare the effect of (SBT) with ATC and PSV on the course and outcome of weaning from mechanical ventilator ER -
