Critical Care Ultrasound Guided Weaning

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Weaning patients from the ventilator in the intensive care unit is sometimes difficult because of three main interrelated etiologies: impaired lung, heart or diaphragm function. In this context, ultrasonography performed during tests for extubation of patients may enable the diagnosis of cardiac dysfunction, loss of pulmonary aeration, diaphragm dysfunction, and venous congestion, thereby reducing the number of failures in extubation.

The combination of TTE (Trans Thoracic Echocardiography), LUS (Lung Ultrasound), DUS (Diaphragmatic ultrasound) and VEXUS (Venous excess Ultrasound) may enable the identification of the etiology of weaning failure and reduce the number of extubation failures by enabling the development of an appropriate treatment strategy. With this study, it is aimed to contribute to the literature in this sense.
