Investigators developed a test to assess the bronchodilator effects in mechanically ventilated chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients by comparing the change of airway resistance. No matter whether patients respond to bronchodilator or not, they are randomized assigned to bronchodilator 3-4 times per day group and no bronchodilator group. Then investigators could objectively decide whether individual patients need or benefit from bronchodilator administration.
