- Primary Endpoint
- Accuracy of change in PIC-TF in predicting successful weaning from mechanical ventilation
Study Overview
Brief Summary
optimal time to liberate from mechanical ventilation is highly prioritized since improper extubation time lead to serious consequences
Detailed Description
Several parameters were proposed to assess proper weaning time including diaphragmatic ultrasound and extra-diaghragmatic muscles. previous research concluded an ability of parasternal intercostal (PIC) thickening to predict weaning outcomes. researchers of current study assumed that temporal changes in PIC thickening would provide greater ability to predict weaning outcomes
