What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this prospective observational study is to evaluate whether left ventricular function parameters assessed via transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) can predict weaning success from mechanical ventilation in adult intensive care unit (ICU) patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can the Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Velocity Time Integral (LVOT VTI) predict successful extubation? What is the prognostic value of other echocardiographic measures such as Mitral Annular Plane Systolic Excursion (MAPSE), E/e' ratio, E/A ratio, Mitral Deceleration Time (MDT), and Myocardial Performance Index (Tei index) in forecasting weaning outcomes? Participants will: Be adults receiving mechanical ventilation and scheduled for weaning Undergo transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) within 2 hours after meeting weaning criteria Have the following parameters measured: LVOT VTI, MAPS
