ClinConnect Summary

Protocol for Assessment and Measurement of Diaphragmatic Ultrasound

Ultrasonographic Evaluation of the Diaphragm Protocol:

This protocol focuses on observing and evaluating diaphragmatic function in patients with acute respiratory failure who require non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV) and/or high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC). The ultrasound measurements performed by researchers will be standardized to ensure consistency and accuracy in assessing diaphragmatic function.

Assessment of Diaphragmatic Thickness Collection of arterial blood gases is performed 1 hour after being on the cli...
