Detailed Description

Many patients who receive treatment in intensive care need mechanical ventilation support. Invasive mechanical ventilation is an application used in critically ill patients to provide pulmonary gas exchange and to relieve the respiratory muscles. Mechanical ventilation and long- term bed rest induced extremity muscle weakness is a common condition in patients hospitalized in the intensive care unit. Acquired muscle weakness in intensive care is associated with poor prognosis and high mortality At the same time, mechanical ventilation can lead to the development of respiratory muscle dystrophy and atrophy.

Recently, a similar concern has arisen about the potential negative effects of mechanical ventilation on respiratory muscles. This condition is called ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction In patients with mechanical ventilation, dysfunction, muscle fiber type change and barotrauma are seen especially in the diaphragm, which is the primary inspiratory muscle. Diaphragmatic dysfunction may promote prolong of intubation, weaning difficulties and risk of increase reintubation in patients who are mechanically ventilated.

The effect of inspiratory muscle training, which is applied in addition to conventional respiratory physiotherapy, on diaphragmatic dysfunction, on the weaning process and the long of stay in intensive care has not been fully elucidated, and a limited number of studies have been conducted on this subject It has been reported that in patients with prolonged mechanical ventilation, diaphragmatic peak contraction velocity, peak relaxation velocity, movement speed, velocity time integral are lower than healthy individuals and this is correlated with failure to wean from mechanical ventilation. We could not find any report and clinical trial in the literature evaluation the effect of conventional physiotherapy and additional inspiratory muscle training on diaphragmatic tissue movement velocity and diaphragm thickness using detailed radiological methods in intensive care patients dependent on mechanical ventilation. In this context, our not working has a unique value. Our study will contribute to elucidating the mechanisms that affect the weaning process from mechanical ventilation in intensive care patients. It is aimed to develop strategies that will shorten the long of stay in intensive care and total hospital stay with therapeutic approaches that enable patients to be extubated as early as possible.

Arm Groups

Label	Type	Description	Intervention Names
Conventional Physiotherapy	Experimental	In the intensive care unit and who had mechanical ventilation for more than 48 hours and who were extubated. Medical, physical and respiratory examination in this group Physical Function Test in Intensive Care (PFIT), maximum inspiratory mouth pressure and maximum expiratory mouth pressure, Medical Research Council Muscle Strength Test and diaphragmatic function with B mode and M mode ultrasonographic assessment. In this group will apply only conventional physiotherapy. Conventional physiotherapy to contain breathing and,thoracal expansion exercises, bronchial hygiene techniques and gradual mobilization. Conventional physiotherapy apply for 5 days after extubation period 1 time a day.	Other: Conventional Physiotherapy
Conventional Physiotherapy + inspiratory muscle training	Experimental	Physical ,medical and respiratory examination in this group Physical Function Test in Intensive Care (PFIT), maximum inspiratory mouth pressure and maximum expiratory mouth pressure, Medical Research Council Muscle Strength Test and diaphragmatic function with B mode and M mode ultrasonographic assessment. In this group, inspiratory muscle training will be applied in addition to conventional physiotherapy. Inspiratory muscle training apply for 5 days after extubation period. Inspiratory muscle training will be given with a threshold loading by giving resistance at 30-40% of the maximum inspiratory pressure measurement obtained. The subjects in this group will be given inspiratory muscle training 4 sets with 6-10 breaths per set, 1-2 minutes between each set once a day in addition to conventional physiotherapy.	Other: Conventional Physiotherapy+ inspiratory muscle training
Healthy Subject	Experimental	In the group consisting of healthy volunteers, which will be taken to determine the normative values of the outcome measurements for diaphragmatic tissue Doppler imaging and ultrasonographic evaluation, 2 sessions a day with a threshold-loaded inspiratory muscle training device, starting at 30% of the MIP value, 5 days a week for 4 weeks. Inspiratory muscle training will be performed in 4 sets, 6-8 breaths in each set and 2 minutes rest between sets. In the second evaluation to be made after the inspiratory muscle training, the above-mentioned evaluations and measurements will be repeated.

Outcomes Module

Primary Outcomes

Measure	Description	Time Frame
Maximal inspiratory and expiratory pressure	Intraoral pressures measured at maximal respiration against a valve that closes the airway during maximal inspiration pressure and expiration. Maximal inspiration pressure is the highest pressure created to open closed alveoli at the residual volume level. In our study, respiratory muscle strength will be performed using a portable, electronic mouth pressure measuring with device. For the test, the applied person is given maximum expiration and at the end of this, the airway is closed with a valve and the person is asked to make maximum inspiration and continue it for 1-3 seconds. In the maximal expiration pressure measurement, after maximal inspiration, the person is asked to make a maximal expiration for 1-3 seconds against the closed airway. The best of the three measurements is selected. There should be no more than 10% or more than 10 cmH2O difference between the two best measured	Change from baseline Maximal inspiratory and expiratory pressure at 5th day
Diaphragmatic B mode, M mode and Tissue Doppler Ultrasonographic Imagining	Doppler Ultrasound evaluation to evaluate the diaphragmatic tissue waveform will be performed with an ultrasound probe placed in the right hemidiaphragm. Tissue movement rates will be evaluated during inspiration and expiration. The maximum contraction and relaxation rate of the diaphragm will be recorded with the sonographic evaluation to be made during 10 normal breaths. In addition, while sitting upright with a 90 degree angle in two-dimensional B mode, diaphragm thickness will be measured from the right intercostal area from the midaxillary level, from the right subcostal area from the anterior axillary level and mid-clavicular level with the superficial probe during deep inspiration and deep expiration. Diaphragm mobility in normal inspiration and deep inspiration from the mid-axillary level from the right subcostal area with M-mode ultrasonography will be evaluated by a pulmonologist before and after the training.	Change from baseline diaphragmatic evaluation at 5th day
Respiratory Muscle Thickness	With B mode ultrasound, the thickness of the internal oblique abdominis, external oblique abdominis and transversus abdominis muscles is measured 2-3 fingers above the umbilicus.
