The Effects of High Protein Supplementation, Core Muscle Rehabilitation and Neuromuscular Electrostimulation (NMES) Programs on Clinical Outcomes in Patients with Prolonged Mechanical Ventilation (PMV〕

Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Dietary supplement, Behavioral, Device
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about in patients with prolong mechanical ventilation. This main questions aims to answer are: * High protein formula intake benefit in successful weaning from ventilator * Core muscle rehabilitation benefit in successful weaning from ventilator * neuromuscular electric stimulation benefit in successful weaning from ventilator Participants will receive high protein diet, core muscle rehabilitation, neuromuscular electric stimulation (NMES). Researchers will compare patients with interventions to control group to see if high protein diet, core muscle rehabilitation, neuromuscular electric stimulation works.

Treatments
No_intervention: Usual care
Usual care as RCC protocol in Chang Gung Memorial hospital
Experimental: UC + high protein diet (HP)
The HP groups will maintain unchanged total daily caloric intake and increasing protein content to 1.5g/kg/day.
Experimental: UC + HP + core muscle rehabilitation
Protein provision was not reduced in case of renal failure. Core muscle rehabilitation is sitting on bedside with or without aids, for 30 minutes, twice per day, 5 days per week, for 3 weeks.
Experimental: UC + HP + core muscle rehabilitation + neuromuscular electric stimulation (NMES)
NMES was applied for 30 min, twice per day, 5 days per week, for 3 weeks via surface rectangular electrodes. Electrodes were placed on back designed to activate latissimus dorsi and abdominal wall designed to activate the transversus abdominis and internal and external oblique muscles. Electrical muscle stimulation was performed by using a commercial stimulator (GEMORE, GM300E, Taipei, Taiwan) with biphasic waves at a simulation frequency of 30 Hz and pulse width of 400s, cycling 2s on and 4s off. Electrical muscle stimulation intensity was gradually increased until a visible muscle contraction was observed (median 60 mA \[range 50-65 mA\].
