Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Combination of lung ultrasound score (LUS), diaphragmatic thickening fraction (DTF), diaphragmatic excursion(DE), internal oblique thickening fraction and diaphragmatic rapid shallow breathing index(D-RSBI) in prediction of successful weaning and extubation failure.Timepoint: 120 minutes following successful spontaneous breathing trial | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1. Estimate cut-off sensitivity and specificity of internal oblique thickening fraction and diaphragmatic RSBI to predict successful weaning. 2. Compose a comprehensive score based upon ultrasound based weaning indices for prediction of successful weaning. Timepoint: 12 months | — |
