Ultrasound of the diaphragm is an easily reproducible bedside tool that provides a non-invasive measurement of inspiratory muscle function and respiratory efficiency. The diaphragmatic thickness corre...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Age ≧ 18; AND
  • Acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF), defined by respiratory rate of greater than 25 breaths per minute and a ratio of the PaO2 to the fraction of inspired oxygen (PaO2 / FiO2) of less than 300, and use of accessory muscles of respiration or paradoxical abdominal motion; AND
  • Required ventilatory support with high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC)

Exclusion

  • Patients suffering from hypercapnic respiratory failure; OR
  • AHRF secondary to conditions that are indicated for non-invasive ventilation (NIV) (e.g. acute exacerbation of COPD, cardiogenic pulmonary edema); OR
  • Use of NIV or invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) prior to HFNC initiation; OR
  • Patients with imminent need for endotracheal intubation and invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV); OR
  • Patients with known or suspected diaphragm paralysis; OR
  • Pregnancy; OR
  • Patients with abdominal compartment syndrome; OR
  • Use of HFNC for more than 12 hours prior to ICU admission; OR
  • Patients with suboptimal diaphragm ultrasound image quality for data processing; OR
