Abstract
Background: Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) presents a significant challenge in critical care, with lung recruitment maneuvers (RMs) being a pivotal treatment strategy. Lung Ultrasound (LUS) and the Oxygenation Index (OI) are two methods used to assess the efficacy of RMs, but their comparative utility remains underexplored.
Objective: To evaluate the role of LUS in the assessment of lung RMs in comparison with OI in mechanically ventilated ARDS patients.
Methods: In a prospective non-randomized interventional study, 48 ARDS patients undergoing mechanical ventilation were divided into two groups: the LUS group (n=27) and the OI group (n=21). LUS was performed using a curvilinear probe, and OI was determined through arterial blood gases analysis.
