Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Mechanical Ventilated patients All patients are invasively mechanically ventilated at least 24 hours, and are clinically stable as ready to undergo a spontaneous breathing trial. |
Diagnostic Test: Parasternal intercostal muscles thickness ultrasound indicies
Parasternal intercostal muscles thickness ultrasound indicies includes:
Parasternal Intercostals Thickness Fraction.
Parasternal Intercostals Thickness at the End of Inspiration.
Parasternal Intercostals thickness at the End of Expiration.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- the thickness fraction of the parasternal intercostal muscle as a predictor of successful spontaneous breathing trials [Before the start spontaneous breathing trial]
The primary outcome is to assess the change of the parasternal intercostal muscles thickness at end of expiration and end of inspiration to verify the thickness fraction of the parasternal intercostal muscle as a predictor of successful spontaneous breathing trials.
