About this trial
The study aims to:
Explore the relationship between MV modes on the IA, MP and GT tolerance among mechanically ventilated patients.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
intra-abdominal pressure "IAP"
IAP will be measured through foly catheter
mechanical power
it will be: MP (J/ min) =0.098×RR×Vt × \[Peak Pressure-(DP/2)\] measured through folly catheter
gastric tube tolerance
The GT tolerance will be presented as yes if the patient was on GT feeding, and no, if the patient had delayed gastric emptying and converted to gastric drain
