A cohort of 25 critically ill non-ventilated patients (APACHE II score \\>8) was enrolled. A single operator acquired 10-second pleural videos at the upper blue point position using a GE Vivid iq ultrasound system (GE Healthcare, USA) with a superficial probe. Two independent operators subsequently analyzed the lung ultrasound (LUS) clips offline using GE EchoPAC software (version 203, GE Healthcare, USA) to derive the maximum pleural longitudinal strain. Each measurement was performed three times, and the average value was recorded. The same measurements were repeated one week later.

This research aims to test a new ultrasound technology called \"speckle tracking\" to measure how much the lining of your lungs (pleura) stretches during breathing, especially if you're on a breathing machine (ventilator). Doctors want to see if this technology can help them adjust ventilator settings more safely, reducing the risk of lung damage.\n\nWhy is this important? Lung protection: Patients on ventilators, especially those with severe lung problems (like ARDS or pneumonia), need careful settings. Too much pressure from the ventilator can harm the lungs.\n\nBetter monitoring: Current tools can't easily measure lung stretching at the bedside. This ultrasound method might offer a simple, painless way to check lung health in real time.\n\nWho can join? Included: Adults (18+ years) in the ICU with serious illness (assessed by a standard score called APACHE II \\>8), whether on a ventilator or not.\n\nExcluded: People with recent chest surgery, broken ribs, nerve\u002Fmuscle diseases, or pregnancy (to avoid risks and ensure accurate measurements).\n\nWhat will happen during the study?\n\nUltrasound scans:\n\nA small probe will be placed gently on your chest for 5-10 minutes. The machine will record videos of your lung movements during breathing. This is painless and uses no radiation.\n\nMeasurements:\n\nDoctors will repeat the scan twice (10 minutes apart) to check consistency. For ventilator patients, scans will be done at different pressure settings to see how lung stretching changes.\n\nHow will this help me or others? Direct benefit: You'll receive detailed monitoring of your lung function, which may help doctors personalize your care.\n\nFuture benefit: If successful, this technology could help doctors worldwide adjust ventilators more safely, reducing complications for ICU patients.\n\nIs my information safe? All data (scans, medical records) will be anonymized and stored securely. Participation is voluntary, and you can withdraw anytime without affecting your treatment.\n\nWho is conducting the study? Led by Dr. Xu Qiancheng and the ICU team at Yijishan Hospital, Wannan Medical College.\n\nExperts in ultrasound and critical care will ensure the study is safe and scientifically rigorous.",[64,65],"Ventilation, Mechanical","ARDS (Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome)",[67,68,69,70,71],"Speckle-Tracking Ultrasound","Pleural Longitudinal Strain","Mechanical Ventilation","Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury (VILI)","Lung Strain","2025-03-28",{"date":74,"type":75},"2025-04-04","ACTUAL",{"date":77,"type":75},"2024-12-05",{"date":79,"type":59},"2025-05-31",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
