Both the broad variation of number of "beds" for prolonged weaning per unit and their unequal geographical distribution across federal states (per capita rate) warrant a more refined follow-up survey that will provide insights into reasons for the observed pattern of variation for these specialized hospital capacities. The German Neurorehabilitation Society (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Neurorehabilitation, DGNR e.V.) conducted a survey among its members to document hospital capacities ("beds") for prolonged weaning for patients with neuro-disabilities that require simultaneous multiprofessional neurorehabilitation treatment ("neuro-weaning beds"). This representative survey indicated substantial hospital capacities for combined prolonged weaning and neurorehabilitation with a total of 1094 "neuro-weaning beds" in Germany. The survey generated a crude estimate of hospital capacities ("beds") for prolonged weaning from a mechanical ventilator for patients with neuro-disabilities that require simultaneous multi-professional neurorehabilitation treatment. ./cache/cord-028201-x57bhyhr.txt ./txt/cord-028201-x57bhyhr.txt
