Summary

The aim of this study is to compare the diameter of accessory respiratory muscles in patients with respiratory diseases and patients without such diseases, and to determine whether there is a connection between the ultrasound-measured thickness of accessory respiratory muscles and time of mechanical ventilation, as well as whether there is a the connection between the measured thickness and the treatment outcome of patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).

Conditions

  • Mechanical Ventilation
  • Duration of Treatment
  • Survival

Interventions

DEVICE

Mindray TE7 ultrasound machine

The study was performed using a Mindray TE7 ultrasound machine with the depth of the linear probe at 70 mm and gain of 90 dB; settings remained unchanged during the study. Measurements of the right m. sternocleidomastoideus, the right m. trapezius, and the right upper leg were taken, with the final value being the average of three measurements for each. The probe was set at the musculoskeletal ultrasound setting.
