Reliability of ultrasonic diaphragm thickness measurement in mechanically ventilated infants and children: A pilot study

Southern African Journal of Critical Care, 2018
Background. Diaphragmatic atrophy in mechanically ventilated infants and children may be due to ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction, which could lead to extubation failure.

Association of Diaphragm Involvement Assessed by Ultrasound With Disease Severity in Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle
Background Respiratory involvement is a comorbidity that should not be overlooked in clinical practice in facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy type 1 (FSHD1), with a reported association for severe disease outcomes such as wheelchair dependency ...

Traction suture fixation technique using a capsular tension ring fragment for severe lens displacement during cataract surgery in dogs

Veterinary Ophthalmology, Volume 28, Issue 2, Page 197-206, March 2025.
Abstract Objectives To describe the traction suture fixation technique for severely displaced lenses (≥180°) using a capsular tension ring (CTR) fragment during cataract surgery in dogs, and to retrospectively investigate its clinical outcomes. Animals Studied Eight dogs (nine eyes). Procedures The medical records of dogs with severe lens displacement (

Diaphragm ultrasound: a bedside test for functional pulmonary assessment

Egyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis
Background Evaluation of diaphragm when combined with spirometry, can be useful to respiratory function assessment. Forced expiratory diaphragm excursion in the first second (FEDE1)/EDEmax % is a novel diaphragm kinetics index that is related to lung ...

Cerebral haemodynamic responses to inspiratory muscle work

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fatiguing inspiratory work has been shown to evoke a sympathetically mediated reflex that has systemic cardiovascular consequences, including increases in heart rate and blood pressure and a decrease in resting limb vascular conductance. Moreover, the response to this reflex appears to be attenuated in females compared with males.

Predictive Value of Diaphragm and Lung Ultrasonography for Weaning Failure in Critically Ill Patients with Acute Respiratory Failure Due to COVID-19 Pneumonia

Diagnostics
Background: This study analyzed weaning characteristics and assessed the association of clinical and ultrasonographic indices—maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP), rapid shallow breathing index (RSBI), peak flow expiratory (PFE), diaphragm-thickening ...

Pressure‐dependent coupling between arterial pressure and intercostal muscle blood‐flow index during acute hypotension in humans

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Regulation of respiratory muscle blood flow during acute systemic hypotension remains poorly understood in humans because continuous assessment of microvascular perfusion during rapid haemodynamic transients has been technically challenging. Using diffuse correlation spectroscopy, we investigated second‐by‐second coupling between mean arterial

Integrated Lung, Diaphragm and Lower Limb Muscular Ultrasound: Clinical Correlations in Geriatric Patients with Acute Respiratory Illness

Diagnostics
Background/Objectives: Point-of-care lung ultrasonography (LUS) represents an accurate diagnostic tool in older patients with respiratory failure. The integration of LUS with ultrasonographic assessment of diaphragm thickness and excursion, right vastus ...
