Intensive care units (ICUs) provide care to many patients who ultimately die while receiving, or after withdrawal of, mechanical ventilation. During the transition from curative to palliative care, it is important to emphasise comfort and symptoms' relief. This includes management of the mechanical ventilator. This review outlines a framework for symptoms-based ventilation of the critically ill patient. A future paper will address withdrawal of mechanical ventilation.
