- Registration Number
- CTRI/2022/03/040909
- Lead Sponsor
- Dayanand Medical College and Hospital Ludhiana India
- Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to assess the role of diaphragm parameters using ultrasound during weaning from invasive mechanical ventilation and to find out cut off of diaphragm excursion time index and tissue doppler imaging values and also to compare ultrasonographic values with lung mechanics and traditional weaning criteria. It will be a prospective observational study to be conducted in the ICUs of Dayanand Medical College and Hospital, Ludhiana. The study period will be of one year.
