No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This research assessed diaphragmatic ultrasound and thoracic fluid content (TFC) as potential early predictive tools for detecting NIV failure in preterm neonates.

Conditions

  • Diaphragm Ultrasound
  • Electrical Cardiometry
  • Non Invasive Ventilation (NIV)
  • RDS of Prematurity

Interventions

DEVICE

Diaphragmatic US

Diaphragmatic thickening fraction (DTF) and diaphragmatic excursion (DE) were measured by ultrasound within the first three hours of life and repeated either 24 hours later in successful cases or immediately before intubation in cases who had NIV failure.

DEVICE

EC

TFC was assessed using electrical cardiometry (EC). Measurements were obtained within the first three hours of life and repeated either 24 hours later in successful cases or immediately before intubation in cases who had NIV failure.
