Diaphragm function and weaning from mechanical ventilation: an ultrasound and phrenic nerve stimulation clinical study

BACKGROUND: Diaphragm dysfunction is defined by a value of twitch tracheal pressure in response to magnetic phrenic stimulation (twitch pressure) amounting to less than 11 cmH(2)O. This study assessed whether this threshold or a lower one would predict accurately weaning failure from mechanical vent...
