Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: All consecutive neonates on conventional ventilation for at least 24 hours

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Previous extubation failures Accidental extubation Life threatening congenital malformations Upper airway malformations Surgical cases(Tracheo-esophageal fistula, congenital diaphragmatic hernia, intestinal atresia, necrotising enterocolitis) requiring intubation Neonates with critical congenital heart disease Chest deformities

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To evaluate predictive ability of lung ultrasound for extubation success. Word outcome refers to no need of re-intubation within 3 days after extubation(successful extubation) Timepoint: till 3 days post extubation—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1.To develop cut off lung ultrasound score with highest area under curve (AUC)for extubation success. 2.To compare predictive ability of lung ultrasound score on screening 6 versus 12 areas for extubation success. Timepoint: till 3 days post extubation—
