Lung and Diaphragm Ultrasound Evaluation During Weaning From Mechanical Ventilation in COVID-19 Patients
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the function of lung and diaphragm ultrasound during weaning from mechanical ventilation in COVID-19 patients. The aim of this study was that the lung ultrasound score and diaphragm muscle mobility could be a potential predictive factor of weaning success.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- The primary end-point was to verify the lung and diaphragm ultrasound evaluation if the predicts weaning success/failure from mechanical ventilation [spontaneous-breathing trial started until 48 hours following extubation]
Weaning failure was defined as failure to pass the spontaneous-breathing trial or the need for re-intubation within 48 h following extubation
