Summary

This trial aims to assess whether a specific scoring system, called the ProVent-14 score, can help ICU clinicians make more accurate predictions about the chances of a patient on mechanical ventilation surviving for a year

Who is the study for?
This trial is for ICU day-shift clinicians (attending physicians, fellow physicians, advanced practice providers, or nurses) who are caring for patients needing mechanical ventilation 14-16 days after intubation and not transitioning to comfort-focused care.
What is being tested?
The study tests if ICU clinicians make more accurate one-year mortality predictions when they know a patient's ProVent-14 score—a simple tool that estimates death risk based on conditions at day 14 of mechanical ventilation.
What are the potential side effects?
There are no direct side effects from using the ProVent-14 score as it is a prognostic tool rather than a medical treatment. The focus is on its impact on clinician decision-making.
