No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study is designed to assess the feasibility of the measurement of local pleural strain at 4 different anatomical sites.

The secondary objectives of the study are:

* To assess intra- and inter-observer variability in the measurement of local pleural strain
* To identify the strain parameters demonstrating the most clinically relevant and the most significant correlation with a change in tidal volume

Hypothesis: The analysis of lung ultrasonographic sequences using speckle-tracking allows the determination of local pleural strain in 4 predetermined pulmonary areas.

Conditions

  • Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury
  • Mechanical Ventilation Complication

Interventions

OTHER

Determination of local pleural strain

For each tidal volume, the local pleural strain will be determined over three consecutive respiratory cycles at four predetermined sites using lung ultrasonography.
