Summary

This study aims to explore whether personalized external diaphragm pacing (EDP) guided by real-time diaphragm ultrasound (DU) can improve outcomes for patients on invasive mechanical ventilation. Diaphragm ultrasound will be used to assess each patient's diaphragm function and adjust the pacing intensity, creating a customized treatment plan. By using this individualized approach, the investigators hope to prevent diaphragm muscle weakening, which is a common issue during prolonged ventilation, and improve the chances of successful weaning from the ventilator. The study will also incorporate advanced diaphragm function metrics, such as diaphragm thickening fraction (DTF) and diaphragmatic rapid shallow breathing index (D-RSBI), to enhance the accuracy of treatment and improve patient recovery. This trial aims to improve overall outcomes and quality of care for patients requiring long-term mechanical ventilation.

Diaphragm Ultrasound-Guided External Diaphragm Pacing

This intervention, Diaphragm Ultrasound-Guided External Diaphragm Pacing (DU-EDP), is distinguished by its personalized approach, where diaphragm pacing is dynamically adjusted based on real-time diaphragm function measurements obtained through bedside diaphragm ultrasound (DU). Unlike standard external diaphragm pacing (EDP) interventions that use uniform pacing parameters, DU-EDP allows for the customization of pacing intensity, frequency, and duration for each patient. This intervention specifically integrates novel diaphragm function indices, such as diaphragm thickening fraction (DTF) and diaphragmatic rapid shallow breathing index (D-RSBI), to enhance precision in weaning from mechanical ventilation. The combination of these advanced metrics with real-time ultrasound guidance makes DU-EDP a highly individualized and innovative intervention for critically ill, mechanically ventilated patients.
