About this trial
Weaning from mechanical ventilation is a critical issue and the diaphragmatic disfunction has been demonstrated to play an important role in extubation failure. the aim of present investigation is to evaluate diaphragmatic excursion velocity during in patients undergoing spontaneous breathing trial through tissue Doppler analysis in both inspiration and expiration.

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Change in diaphragmatic displacement velocity
Inspiratory and expiratory diaphragmatic displacement velocity evaluated with tissue doppler during the assisted ventilation modality which preceded the trial, during the spontaneous breathing trial and in spontaneous breathing.
Secondary outcomes
Diaphragmatic acceleration and deceleration
Diaphragmatic acceleration and deceleration evaluated with tissue doppler during the assisted ventilation modality which preceded the trial, during the spontaneous breathing trial and in spontaneous breathing.
