Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
1.To assess the accuracy of diaphragmatic indices (Diaphragm excursion, Time to peak amplification, and diaphragm thickness fraction) by ultrasonography to predict successful weaning in patients on mechanical ventilation. <br/ ><br>2.To evaluate the best measured variables to predict successful weaning . <br/ ><br>Timepoint: At the time, just before extubation of the patient from mechanical ventilator.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
1.To compare diaphragmatic parameters with Rapid shallow breathing index (RSBI). <br/ ><br>2.To assess the association between diaphragmatic indices & diaphragmatic dysfunction & reintubation <br/ ><br>3.To assess the patients’ characteristics like age, sex, SOFA score, APACHE II score, type of mode of mechanical ventilation & comorbidities for diaphragm dysfunction and <br/ ><br>4.To assess the duration on mechanical ventilation & ICU stay. <br/ ><br>Timepoint: At the time, just before extubation of the patient from mechanical ventilator. <br/ ><br>
