Doctors use simple scan to help patients breathe on their own sooner

NCT ID NCT07235956

Summary

This study aims to find a better way to predict when patients in intensive care can be safely taken off a mechanical ventilator (breathing machine). Researchers will use ultrasound to measure how a patient's main breathing muscle (the diaphragm) moves. The goal is to create a personalized measurement that helps doctors decide the best time to remove the breathing tube, aiming to avoid failed attempts and shorten hospital stays.
