Summary
This study looks at whether a bedside lung ultrasound can help doctors see how well the lungs of obese patients are opening during a breathing machine procedure. The goal is to find the best air pressure to keep lungs open and improve oxygen levels. About 45 adults with a BMI of 33 or higher who need a ventilator will be scanned before, during, and after the procedure.
