Registered outcomes 1
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Change from Baseline in Total Bilateral Lateral Pharyngeal Wall (LPW) Thickness at Pre-extubation | From baseline to immediately before extubation (T2) | Assessed via bedside ultrasonography using a high-frequency linear transducer (7-15 MHz) with the patient in the supine position. Lateral pharyngeal wall (LPW) thickness is defined as the shortest perpendicular distance (in millimeters) between the medial border of the internal carotid artery (ICA) and the echogenic pharyngeal mucosal surface measured at end-expiration. On each side, three separate measurements are obtained after probe removal and repositioning, and the mean is calculated. The total bilateral LPW thickness is calculated as the sum of the right and left mean thicknesses (in mm). The change is calculated by subtracting baseline values (T0) from values obtained immediately before extubation (T2). | ClinicalTrials.gov |
