What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. the thickness fraction of the parasternal intercostal muscle as a predictor of successful spontaneous breathing trials

    The primary outcome is to assess the change of the parasternal intercostal muscles thickness at end of expiration and end of inspiration to verify the thickness fraction of the parasternal intercostal muscle as a predictor of successful spontaneous breathing trials.

    Measured: Before the start spontaneous breathing trial

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Parasternal Intercostal Muscle Thickness and Weaning From Mechanical Ventilation, run by Wesameldin Abelrahman Soltan at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 14 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Mar 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Wesameldin A Soltan, M.D. (0020101012215, wesamsultan1@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the thickness fraction of the parasternal intercostal muscle as a predictor of successful spontaneous breathing trials (time frame: Before the start spontaneous breathing trial). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Mar 2021.
