Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To study the proportion of geriatric patients with diaphragmatic weakness, as assessed by ultrasound, requiring post-operative mechanical ventilation after abdominal surgery under general anaesthesiaTimepoint: immediately after surgery—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To study and compare the change in the diaphragmatic function from the preoperative period to post-operative period in geriatric patients undergoing abdominal surgery under general anaesthesiaTimepoint: From before to after the surgery;To study the association of the ultrasound guided diaphragmatic function in the pre and postoperative period with the need for post- operative mechanical ventilation in geriatric patients undergoing abdominal surgery under general anaesthesiaTimepoint: Before the surgery;To study the association of the ultrasound guided diaphragmatic function in the preoperative and post-operative period with the development of post-operative pulmonary complications in immediate postoperative period as assessed by lung ultrasoundTimepoint: 1 hour after the surgery;To study the association of the ultrasound guided diaphragmatic function in the preoperative period with the preoperative Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) score in geriatric patients undergoing abdominal surgery under general anaesthesiaTimepoint: immediately after surgery;To study the impact of epidural analgesia on change in diaphragmatic function from the preoperative period to post-operative period in geriatric patients undergoing abdominal surgery under general anaesthesiaTimepoint: Immediately after surgery;To study the association of pre-operative and post-operative diaphragmatic function with post-operative arterial blood gasesTimepoint: 1 hour after surgery;To study the association of pre-operative and post-operative diaphragmatic function with incidence of delayed extubationTimepoint: 1 hour after surgery;To study the association of pre-operative and post-operative diaphragmatic function with patient outcome i.e. recovery, prolonged hospital stay, prolonged ICU stay, mortalityTimepoint: 7 days—
