Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to assess accuracy of Lung ultrasound score for early diagnosis of acute respiratory distress syndrome in patients who expected to be mechanically ventilated more than 24 hour in comparison with computed tomography chest .

Conditions

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome; Mechanical Ventilation Complication; Computed Tomography

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Diagnosis of Acute respiratory distress syndrome

  Accuracy of lung ultrasound score in diagnosis of Acute respiratory distress syndrome in comparison with Lung computed tomography .

  Within 48 hours

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• Severity of Acute respiratory distress syndrome .

  Within 48 hours

Interventions

Lung Ultrasound RADIATION

Patients were examined in supine position, using a portable ultrasound machine equipped with a curvilinear transducer (5-3 MHz)

Also known as: Lung computed tomography

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 22 Years - 80 Years
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: No
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
• Sampling Method: Probability Sample

Study Population

patients admitted in surgical Intensive care unit that mechanically ventilated more than 24 hours who fulfill criteria of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome according to Berlin definition.

You may qualify if:

• Patients aged more than 21 years old of both sexes .
• Patients who are expected to be mechanically ventilated more than 24 h .
• Patients who are suspected to be Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome according to Berlin definition which consists of clinical criteria and with precipitating factors which starts within 1 week of known insult as in trauma patients with lung contusions.

You may not qualify if:

• History of pre-existing lung disease ( tumors, interstitial lung diseases)
• In cases of volume overload.
• Patients with acute kidney injuiry or renal failure
