Treatment and study plan

Diaphragm thickness

Other

measured at apposition zone using ultrasonography in mm

Cross-sectional area of rectus femoris muscle

Other

measured at lower one-third line between Spina iliaca anterior inferior (SIAI) and upper border femur patella using ultrasonography in cm^2

Cross-sectional area of biceps brachii

Other

measured at biceps brachii muscle using ultrasonography in cm^2

C-Reactive Protein (CRP) Level

Diagnostic Test

quantitative CRP using ELISA method in mcg/mL

Primary outcomes

  1. Correlation between changes in diaphragm thickness with ventilator length of use

    Time frame: 30 days from admission

    Correlation between changes in diaphragm thickness with ventilator length of use: < 7 days or >7 days

  2. Correlation between changes in cross-sectional area of rectus femoris muscle with ventilator length of use

    Time frame: 30 days from admission

    Correlation between changes in cross-sectional area of rectus femoris muscle with ventilator length of use: < 7 days or >7 days

  3. Correlation between changes in cross-sectional area of biceps brachii muscle with ventilator length of use

    Time frame: 30 days from admission

    Correlation between changes in cross-sectional area of biceps brachii muscle with ventilator length of use: < 7 days or >7 days

  4. Correlation between changes in quantitative C-reactive protein (CRP) level with ventilator length of use

    Time frame: 30 days from admission

    Correlation between changes in quantitative C-reactive protein (CRP) level with ventilator length of use: < 7 days or >7 days

Secondary outcomes

  1. Ventilator length of use

    Time frame: 30 days from admission

    duration of first ventilator use until patient is extubated or deceased: <7 days or >7 days

  2. Changes in diaphragm thickness

    Time frame: 5 days from admission

    Measurement of diaphragm thickness from day 1 admission to ICU using ventilator to day 5 in mm

    Score for changes in diaphragm thickness:

    0 : no changes

    • : decrease thickness of <20%
    • : decrease thickness of >20%
  3. Changes in cross-sectional area of rectus femoris muscle

    Time frame: 5 days from admission

    Measurement of cross-sectional area of rectus femoris muscle from day 1 admission to ICU using ventilator to day 5 in cm^2

    Score for changes in diaphragm thickness:

    0 : no changes

    • : decrease cross-sectional area of <20%
    • : decrease cross-sectional area of >20%
  4. Changes in cross-sectional area of biceps brachii muscle

    Time frame: 5 days from admission

    Measurement of cross-sectional area of biceps brachii muscle from day 1 admission to ICU using ventilator to day 5 in cm^2

    Score for changes in diaphragm thickness:

    0 : no changes

    • : decrease cross-sectional area of <20%
    • : decrease cross-sectional area of >20%
  5. Changes in quantitative C-reactive protein (CRP) levels

    Time frame: 5 days from admission

    Measurement of quantitative CRP from day 1 admission to ICU using ventilator to day 5 in mcg/mL

    Score for changes in diaphragm thickness:

    0 : no changes

    • : increase in quantitative CRP <50%
    • : increase in quantitative CRP >50%
