Brief Summary
|
This prospective, observational cohort study at Holy Family Hospital, New Delhi will evaluate weaning readiness in ICU patients on mechanical ventilation for over 24 hours. After ethical approval and informed consent, eligible patients will undergo assessments, including diaphragm thickness and intercoastal muscle measurements, using ultrasound during a spontaneous breathing trial (SBT). Diaphragm thickening fraction (TFdi) and intercostal muscle thickening fraction (TFic) will be calculated. The Rapid Shallow Breathing Index (RSBI) will also be recorded. Treating intensivists, blinded to these findings, will make extubation decisions, with weaning success defined as sustained extubation without support for 48 hours. |
