Clinical trials: Airway Ultrasonography
Acute Respiratory Disease
Estimation of P0.1 Using Ultrasound Indexes of Diaphragm Function
Occlusion pressure at 100 ms (P0.1) is a reliable and non-invasive index of inspiratory drive that can be measured easily on most ventilator. Unfortunately, P0.1 cannot be measured reliably in non-intubated patients.
