Summary
This study looked at 64 adults on breathing machines to see if changes in a chest muscle (parasternal intercostal) could help doctors know the right time to remove the tube. Researchers measured muscle thickening during a breathing test. The goal was to find a simple, non-invasive way to predict successful removal and avoid complications.
