DOI: 10.1002/ppul.25916
Abstract: BACKGROUND Children should be weaned from the ventilator once their clinical condition improves. Extubation failure is associated with poorer clinical outcomes in children. Predictive indicators of successful extubation are needed. This study aims to evaluate… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/eurheartj/ehz748.0948
Abstract: Diaphragm ultrasound allows for assessment of both diaphragm excursion and thickness. Cervical and cortical magnetic stimulation (CEMS and COMS) with recording of the diaphragmatic compound motor action potential (CMAP) is diagnostically useful to evaluate the… read more here.

DOI: 10.4103/ija.ija_229_22
Abstract: Background and Aims: Weaning from mechanical ventilation based on clinical parameters and rapid shallow breathing index (RSBI) is associated with a higher weaning failure. Bedside ultrasound of the diaphragm is gaining popularity to assess the… read more here.
