Diaphragm Ultrasound in Cardiac Surgery: State of the Art [PDF]
Medicines (Basel, Switzerland), 2022 In cardiac surgery, patients are at risk of phrenic nerve injury, which leads to diaphragm dysfunction and acute respiratory failure. Diaphragm dysfunction (DD) is relatively frequent in cardiac surgery and particularly affects patients after coronary ...

Accuracy of lung and diaphragm ultrasound in predicting infant weaning outcomes: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2023 BackgroundAlthough lung and diaphragm ultrasound are valuable tools for predicting weaning results in adults with MV, their relevance in children is debatable.

The Utility of Diaphragm Ultrasound in Reducing Time to Extubation [PDF]
Lung, 2020 Prediction of optimal timing for extubation of mechanically ventilated patients is challenging. Ultrasound measures of diaphragm thickness or diaphragm dome excursion have been used to aid in predicting extubation success or failure. The aim of this study was to determine if incorporating results of diaphragm ultrasound into usual ICU care would ...

Possibilities of ultrasound research of the diaphragm [PDF]
Терапевтический архив, 2019 The ultrasound method is a non-invasive and safe diagnostic method. Ultrasound examination (ultrasound) of the diaphragm allows you to conduct a direct study of its structure and function.

Neuromuscular ultrasound for evaluation of the diaphragm [PDF]
Muscle and Nerve, 2013 Neuromuscular clinicians are often asked to evaluate the diaphragm for diagnostic and prognostic purposes. Traditionally, this evaluation is accomplished through history, physical exam, fluoroscopic sniff test, nerve conduction studies, and electromyography (EMG).

Evaluation of diaphragm functions with diaphragm ultrasound and pulmonary function tests in individuals with Friedreich's ataxia. [PDF]
Turk J Med Sci, 2023 Background/aim: It is known that the correlation of pulmonary function tests (PFT) with muscle dysfunction is insufficient. Here, we aimed to evaluate the diaphragm functions in individuals with Friedreich?s ataxia (FRDA) and to examine its relationship with respiratory parameters and disease severity.
