Twenty‐one cats and six dogs that presented to a first‐opinion clinic with signs of dyspnea and muffled cardiac auscultation received ultrasonography to look for signs of diaphragmatic rupture. The presence or absence of diaphragmatic rupture was subsequently determined on the basis of unequivocal radio‐graphic signs, surgical findings, or necropsy ...

A Review of the Ultrasound Assessment of Diaphragmatic Function in Clinical Practice

Respiration, 2016
Ultrasonography is the only non-invasive, non-ionizing imaging technique widely available to directly assess diaphragmatic function. Two different sonographic approaches permit the assessment of muscle thickening in the zone of apposition and excursion of the dome of the diaphragm.

Causes of abnormal right diaphragmatic position diagnosed by ultrasound

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, 1983
AbstractFifty patients with an abnormal right diaphragmatic position on posterioranterior and lateral chest films and five patients following right thoracotomy were examined by ultrasound. The transabdominal and intercostal approach with the liver as an acoustic window was used. In all patients the cause for the change in the diaphragmatic position and

Diaphragmatic paralysis in children: Diagnosis by TM-mode ultrasound

Pediatric Radiology, 1994
Diaphragmatic paralysis, a difficult diagnosis in the pediatric age group, has classically been made by fluoroscopy or B-mode ultrasound. We report our experience with TM-mode exploration. Twenty-seven patients suspected to have diaphragmatic paralysis were examined by means of inspiratory and expiratory chest radiography, fluoroscopy and B-mode ...

Diaphragmatic ultrasound for extubation readiness: The role of thickening fraction

Journal of Critical Care
Timely extubation is essential in ICU patients, yet traditional predictors such as the rapid shallow breathing index (RSBI) have limited accuracy. Diaphragm and lung ultrasound offer promising, non-invasive alternatives for assessing extubation readiness.We conducted a prospective observational study nested within a randomized trial in a university ICU.
