Objective To clarify the effect of early rehabilitation nursing on the success rate of weaning in critically ill pneumonia patients undergoing mechanical ventilation. Methods A total of 99 patients who met the diagnostic criteria for severe pneumonia based on comprehensive clinical examination results from November 2023 to November 2024 were included in the study. They were randomly divided into two groups using a random number table method, with 47 patients in the control group and 52 patients in the observation group. The control group received routine nursing intervention, while the observation group received early rehabilitation nursing intervention. The effects of different interventions were compared and analyzed. Results The observation group had higher lung function indicators, with a P-value of<0.05, indicating a significant statistical difference. The clinical indicators and offline success rate of the observation group had lower values, with a P-value of<0.05, indicating a significant statistical difference. Conclusion Early rehabilitation nursing measures in mechanically ventilated patients with severe pneumonia are beneficial for promoting lung function recovery, reducing the duration of weaning, ICU treatment, and hospitalization, and improving the success rate of weaning.
