About this trial

The goal of this observational study is to measure effort using esophageal pressure measurements, oxygen consumption and diaphragm activity in mechanically ventilated Intensive Care Unit patients during a Spontaneous Breathing Trial. The main question aims to answer whether the sEMG signal derived from the SERA device, effort parameters and oxygen consumption have an association with weaning failure.

Participants will be measured while performing a spontaneous breathing trial.
