Abstract

Worldwide, nearly half of the patients admitted to Intensive care units require ventilatory support. Mechanical ventilation is a critical intervention for critically ill patients, yet it is associated with high mortality especially in resource-limited settings (1). Understanding mortality rates and identifying associated factors in mechanically ventilated patients are essential for improving clinical outcomes and optimizing critical care practices
