Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Compare the change in pulmonary aeration during the test of weaning from mechanical ventilation (before, at the end, and 4-6 h after) between patients requiring re-ventilation before the 48th hour, and those weaned permanently.before, at the end, and 4-6 h afterCompare the change in pulmonary aeration during the test of weaning from mechanical ventilation (before, at the end, and 4-6 h after) between patients requiring re-ventilation before the 48th hour, and those weaned permanently.
