Diaphragm thickness and mobility assessed by ultrasound in individuals with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) reflect the function of the diaphragm. The aim of this study is to compare the diaphragm thickness, mobility, and thickening fraction in individuals with COPD of different severity and healthy individuals and examine the relationship

Diaphragm dysfunction is associated with weaning outcomes in mechanical ventilation patients, in the case of diaphragm dysfunction, the accessory respiratory muscles would be recruited. The main purpose of this study is to explore the performance of parasternal intercostal muscle thickening fraction in relation to diaphragmatic thickening fraction ...

Background: Extubation, like intubation, is a critical component of airway management for anaesthesiologists. Diaphragmatic function plays a vital role in predicting extubation success, as diaphragm dysfunction can lead to postoperative ventilation, delayed weaning, and respiratory complications.

Relationship Between Diaphragm Thickness, Thickening Fraction, Dome Excursion, and Respiratory Pressures in Healthy Subjects: An Ultrasound Study [PDF]
Abstract Purpose Diaphragm ultrasonography is used to identify causes of diaphragm dysfunction. However, its correlation with pulmonary function tests, including maximal inspiratory (MIP) and expiratory pressures (MEP), remains unclear.

Introduction: Diaphragm dysfunction is common in patients undergoing mechanical ventilation. The application of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and the varying end-expiratory lung volume cause changes in diaphragm geometry. We aimed to assess the

Diaphragm ultrasound as a better predictor of successful extubation from mechanical ventilation than rapid shallow breathing index [PDF]
Background In 3%–19% of patients, reintubation is needed 48–72 hours following extubation, which increases intensive care unit (ICU) morbidity, mortality, and expenses. Extubation failure is frequently caused by diaphragm dysfunction. Ultrasonography can
