Grip Test in Ventilated ICU Patients — griptest92

Mechanically Ventilated ICU Patients Clinical Trial

Official title:
The Role of the Grip Test in the Evaluation of Extubation Success in ICU Patients.

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

ICU patients do experience extubation failure. Guidelines rarely include muscle strength criteria. Prior work indicates that grip strength is a reliable surrogate for muscle strength. The purpose of the study is to assess the success rate of mechanical ventilation weaning based on the grip test.
