VOX Index– A New Parameter Using Ultrasound to Predict Time of Applying Noninvasive Ventilation
2020-11-12
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Physicians have been utilizing respiratory status and arterial blood gases measurements of the patient for determining the need of noninvasive ventilation (NIV). There is actually no clear and accurate index to assess the appropriate time of using NIV. We hypothesized that diaphragmatic ultrasound in combination with arterial blood gases test can accurately predict when the patients require s...
