Simple scan could help ICU patients breathe on their own sooner

NCT ID NCT07343882

Summary

This study aims to see if a special ultrasound scan can predict which critically ill patients will struggle to breathe on their own after being taken off a ventilator. Doctors will scan 350 ICU patients before a breathing test to see if signs of fluid overload in the veins predict failure. The goal is to help doctors identify high-risk patients earlier so they can be better prepared, potentially reducing complications and time in the ICU.
