Mechanical Power Versus Diaphragmatic Excursion As a Predictor for Weaning in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Patients

The primary objective is to evaluate the mechanical power as a predictor of weaning of mechanical ventilation in COPD patients hospitalized in the respiratory intensive care unit of Assiut University Hospital. The secondary objective is to compare between mechanical power and diaphragmatic excursion (DE) assessed by ultrasound as a predictor of weaning in these patients. Also, to investigate the association between MP and DE and mortality in these patients
