Doctors probe why breathing fails to predict who needs a breathing tube

NCT ID NCT04961437

Summary

This study observed 55 adults hospitalized with sudden, severe breathing failure. Researchers measured patients' breathlessness, how well different parts of their lungs were working, and the strength of their main breathing muscle (the diaphragm) over time. The goal was to learn which measurements might help predict which patients will need a breathing tube and ventilator support.
