Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • lenght

    Measuring the length and depth of the notch. Calculating the length/depth ratio. Measurements in millimeters. The measurement will be made on each side: left and right.

    The ultrasound measurement will be carried out only once for each volunteer participant. The time spent participating in the study will be approximately 10 minutes per participant (time required for ultrasound measurements).

Study Arms (1)

healthy adult volunteer group

hospital workers recruited in intensive care and emergency departments.

Other: echography
