Assessing Weaning Readiness: Insights from Lung Ultrasound in Critical Care
LUS constitutes a noninvasive but valid soothsayer of weaning outcomes in the ICU context. The pre- and post-SBT LUS scores convey important information on lung aeration, which could help develop individualized extubation strategies. Integrating this into standard weaning protocol would maximize outcome benefits, particularly in resource-poor countries.
