Appropriate weaning strategies in critically ill patients are essential for successful weaning. Promoting self-efficacy can help patients feel more confident and successful in divorcing. This research is a quasi-experimental research to develop the MICU Model of ventilator weaning at Mahasarakham Hospital, Mahasarakham Province. Between February 2025 and May 2025. The samples were divided into experimental and control groups. The samples were selected by specific sampling using the G*Power program, setting the test power at 0.80. The sample group consisted of 50 people. The instruments consisted of 1) the MICU Model Weaning Program, 2) the MICU Model Weaning Assessment and Process, and 3) the Weaning Self-Efficacy Scale. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and t-test. The results of the research found that after the experiment, the time to weaning from the ventilator in critically ill patients in the experimental group was significantly lower than the control group at a statistical significance level of .05 (t=1.45) and the self-efficacy perception of the experimental group was significantly better than that of the control group at the .05 level (t=6.05). Therefore, healthcare teams should prioritize the development of ventilator weaning programs that include self-efficacy promotion to help critically ill patients wean off ventilators more quickly.
