Doctors test simple scan to help patients breathe on their own

NCT ID NCT07235956

Summary

This study aims to find a better way to predict when patients in intensive care can safely stop using a ventilator. Researchers will use ultrasound to measure how a patient's main breathing muscle (the diaphragm) moves. By observing 100 patients, they hope to find a measurement that helps doctors decide when to remove the breathing tube, aiming to increase success and avoid the need to put it back in.
