Study Arms (1)

Critically Ill ICU Patients with Acute Respiratory Insufficiency

Diagnostic Test: Abbreviated Lung Ultrasound Protocol

Interventions

Abbreviated Lung Ultrasound ProtocolDiagnostic test

This intervention uses only 6 examination points (3 per hemithorax) compared to the established Baciarello protocol's 12 points. This represents a 50% reduction in examination sites while preserving comprehensive regional coverage. Standardised Anatomical Positioning Examination is performed at the level of the nipple or 4th intercostal space in the midclavicular line, then proceeds horizontally toward the posterior regions. This precise anatomical landmark standardises probe placement and differs from protocols using multiple horizontal levels. The protocol employs a 0-18 point scoring scale (0-3 points per field) versus the Baciarello protocol's 0-36 scale.
