Effect of Body Tilting on Diaphragm Excursion and Thickness in the Stroke With Tracheotomy : Assessment by Ultrasonography

The purpose of this study was to examine whether if the effect of standing with assistance of the tilt table on diaphragm excursion and thickness in the stroke patients with tracheotomy.

Study Overview

Status

Active, not recruiting

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

40-45 stroke patients with tracheotomy were passive tilting (α=0°, 30°, 60°) by an electric tilt table in the random order. The diaphragm excursion and thickness were measured by ultrasonography on three tilting during the quiet breathing. Besides, the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) were calculated to assess the reliability of the diaphragm ultrasonography in this population.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Diaphragm excursion
Time Frame: Half an hour
The measurement of the diaphragm dome excursion following the M-mode approach during quiet breathing could provide indirect information about inspiratory volume.
Half an hour
Diaphragm thickness
Time Frame: Half an hour
The diaphragm thickness was measured by B-mode approach providing clear visualization of the diaphragm morphology at the zone of apposition at the quiet breathing on the three tilting.
Half an hour

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC)
Time Frame: Within-24h
For the ultrasonography assessment, the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was analyzed by using the two-way mixed-effects ICC [2.1] model with 95% confidence intervals (CIs).
Within-24h
