Summary

Different Protein Doses' Effect on Diaphragmatic Function and Quadriceps Thickness

Conditions

  • ICU Acquired Weakness

Interventions

OTHER

patients who will receive 2 gm protein/kg/day will be evaluated by ultrasound for diaphragmatic function and quadriceps muscle thickness

All patients after ICU admission will be started enteral nutrition through a nasogastric tube within 24-48 hours. The target caloric intake is 25-30 kcal/kg/day. patients in the interventional group will receive 2 gm protein/kg/day, while patients in the control group will receive 1.2 gm protein/kg/day. Quadriceps thickness and Diaphragm thickening fraction will be assessed by ultrasound from the time of admission on days 0, 3, 5, and 7 then weekly till the fourth week.
