NCT ID NCT07303335
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how often muscle loss (sarcopenia) happens in adults who need a breathing machine in the ICU for more than 48 hours. Researchers will measure muscle health using simple tests and ultrasound. The goal is to understand how common this problem is and how it changes during the hospital stay.
