NCT05951114

Brief Summary

Respiratory muscle dysfunction may contribute to the development of postoperative pulmonary complications. However, it prevalence in patients receiving neurosurgery is largely unknown. Therefore, in present study, respiratory muscle function (measured by the ultrasound) and their correlation with the post-operative pulmonary complications will be analyzed.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence of diaphragm dysfunction after neurosurgery

    The diaphragm dysfunction is defined as the thickening fraction \< 20% under the maximum inspiration

    Within 24 hours after the completion of surgery

Secondary Outcomes (9)

  • The correlation between the level of NSE and the diaphragm function

    Within 24 hours after the completion of surgery

  • The correlation between the level of inflammation maker ILs and the diaphragm function

    Within 24 hours after the completion of surgery

  • The correlation between the level of inflammation maker TNF-alpha and the diaphragm function

    Within 24 hours after the completion of surgery

  • The thickening fraction of expiratory muscles after surgery

    Within 24 hours after the completion of surgery

  • The incidence of postoperative pulmonary complication

    Through study completion, an average of 1 month

  • +4 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Patients with diaphragm weakness

Diaphragm weakness will be defined as thickening fraction \<=20 % at the time of extubation

Diagnostic Test: Maximum inspiratory/Expiratory manoeuvre for patients can follow the order

Patients without diaphragm weakness

Diaphragm thickening fraction \>20 % at the time of extubation

Diagnostic Test: Maximum inspiratory/Expiratory manoeuvre for patients can follow the order

Interventions

Bedside ultrasound will be performed for each patient at the time before, after surgery, before and after extubation, and at the time of ICU discharge, under the end-expiratory occlusion, maximum inspiratory, and/or expiratory manoeuvre

Also known as: End-expiratory occlusion in patients with endotracheal tube in situ
Patients with diaphragm weaknessPatients without diaphragm weakness
