Transthoracic Ultrasonography Findings and Their Relation to Spirometric Indices in Patients With Obstructive and Restrictive Respiratory Diseases

Recruiting

• Conditions: Lung Ultrasound; Diaphragm Ultrasound; Respiratory Diseases; Spirometry
• Interventions: Radiation: transthoracic ultrasonography; Device: spirometry

• Registration Number: NCT05175313
• Lead Sponsor: Sohag University

Brief Summary

Evaluation of respiratory function is considered a crucial component in the assessment of patients with a wide range of respiratory diseases. Spirometry is considered a common method of measuring pulmonary function. Recently, Transthoracic ultrasound yields important diagnostic information within minutes. Respiratory muscle ultrasound is used to evaluate the anatomy and function of the respiratory system.

Arm && Interventions

Group	Intervention	Description
normal people	spirometry	people who don't complain of respiratory diseases will be examined by chest ultrasound and pulmonary function test.
restrictive respiratory diseases	transthoracic ultrasonography	patient with either ILD
normal people	transthoracic ultrasonography	people who don't complain of respiratory diseases will be examined by chest ultrasound and pulmonary function test.
obstructive respiratory diseases	transthoracic ultrasonography	the patients who are diagnosed with either COPD or asthma.
obstructive respiratory diseases	spirometry	the patients who are diagnosed with either COPD or asthma.
restrictive respiratory diseases	spirometry	patient with either ILD

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
investigate the correlation between transthoracic ultrasonography findings and their relation to spirometric indices in patients with different respiratory diseases.	6months	we will study the degree of change in lung ultrasound, diaphragm, and respiratory muscles ultrasound, inferior vena cava ultrasound in obstructive and restrictive respiratory diseases .also, we find their correlation with spirometric indices in these diseases.
