Brief summary

Decrease thickness of diaphragm muscle, cross-sectional area of rectus femoris and biceps brachii muscle, and increase in CRP would affect ventilator length of use in critically ill patients in ICU

Interventions

OTHERDiaphragm thickness

measured at apposition zone using ultrasonography in mm

OTHERCross-sectional area of rectus femoris muscle

measured at lower one-third line between Spina iliaca anterior inferior (SIAI) and upper border femur patella using ultrasonography in cm\^2

OTHERCross-sectional area of biceps brachii

measured at biceps brachii muscle using ultrasonography in cm\^2

DIAGNOSTIC_TESTC-Reactive Protein (CRP) Level

quantitative CRP using ELISA method in mcg/mL
