Brief Summary

Predicting successful discontinuation from mechanical ventilation has been a focus of interest to all critical care physicians . Various weaning indices have been investigated to optimize the weaning process. Among them, the rapid shallow breathing index (RSBI) has gained wide use but it have different sensitivities and specificities. By substituting tidal volume (VT) with diaphragmatic displacement (DD) in the calculation of RSBI a new index (the diaphragmatic rapid shallow breathing index DRSBI) was proposed and it was independently associated with weaning failure and its accuracy for predicting weaning outcome is expected to be superior to the traditional RSBI.

Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • weaning failure

    weaning failure is the inability to maintain spontaneous breathing for at least 48 h, Patients who required reintubation or noninvasive positive pressure ventilation within 48 h of discontinuation of mechanical ventilation (MV) will be considered failed to wean

    48 hours

Study Arms (2)

traditional RSBI

NO INTERVENTION

the decision to continue SBT depends on the traditional RSBI (RSBI \< 105 predicts successful weaning)

Diaphragmatic RSBI

EXPERIMENTAL

diaphragm ultrasound was done to measure diaphragmatic displacement which is used to calculate DRSBI and The investigator takes the decision about SBT continuation based on the result of DRSBI (DRSBI \< 1.3 predicts successful weaning)

Other: Diaphragm ultrasound

Interventions

In the semi-sitting position ultrasonography for diaphragmatic displacement was performed by the same intensivist. Diaphragmatic movement was evaluated by using 2 to 5 MHz US probe (Sonosite M-Turbo machine). The right hemidiaphragm was examined by two-dimensional (2D) and M-mode to record diaphragm displacement.in M-mode, the diaphragmatic displacement (cm) was measured and then DRSBI was calculated by respiratory rate (RR)/ diaphragmatic displacement (DD) (in mm)

Diaphragmatic RSBI
