Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to compare the accuracy of the total thoracic fluid content (TFC) measured by electrical cardiometry with accuracy of lung ultrasound score in prediction of weaning outcome in mechanically ventilated patients.


Clinical Trial Description

Weaning of patients from mechanical ventilation remains one of the critical decisions in the intensive care unit. Earlier patient weaning from mechanical ventilation is recommended to avoid complications of prolonged mechanical ventilation; however, premature weaning might result in extubation failure which is, independently, associated with poor outcomes. Screening for eligibility is the first step in the weaning process, followed by the spontaneous breathing trial (SBT). Various indices should be checked carefully before starting a spontaneous breathing trial to ensure adequate oxygenation, ventilation, and airway reflexes. However, nearly one-third of patients fail and are reintubated despite fulfillment of all the current weaning pre-requisites. ;
