Comprehensive Ultrasound Evaluation as a Predictor of Weaning
Can Heart-lung-respiratory Muscles Ultrasound Evaluation Play a Role to Predict Weaning in Critically Ill Patients?
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 9 May 2024
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Several studies investigated the role of specific clinical predictors of weaning success, but it is determined by a combination of different aspects that can result in success or failure. Indeed, unresolved lung disease, cardiac dysfunction, loss of respiratory and core muscle strength can play a role in a failure weaning to mechanical ventilation (MV). The investigators hypothesized that a combined score that include heart, lung, and respiratory muscle ultrasound (US) evaluation could be able to predict the ability of weaning success. Furthermore, it will be described weather the days of MV before weaning trial may affect the relevance of each clinical variable evaluated.
