Clinical Trial: Effectiveness of Diaphragmatic Function and Parasternal Intercostal Muscles Functions as Predictors for Successful Weaning From Mechanical Ventilation

U.S., June 6 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07630662) titled 'Effectiveness of Diaphragmatic Function and Parasternal Intercostal Muscles Functions as Predictors for Successful Weaning From Mechanical Ventilation' on June 02.

Brief Summary: Critically ill patients frequently develop respiratory muscle dysfunction that may contribute to difficult and prolonged weaning from mechanical ventilation. that is besides complications such as barotrauma, ventilator-acquired pneumonia, accumulation of secretions, and lung atelectasis.

The ultrasound estimation of parasternal intercostal muscle and diaphragmatic functions is a method to evaluate if there is a good chance of weaning outcomes.
