A study to find the relationship between neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) with diaphragm thickness of critical patients in ICU.
Weaning from ventilator sometimes can be failed and it happened due to several factors. One of the causes was Ventilator Induced Diaphragm Dysfunction (VIDD). This VIDD process occurred due to thinning process of the diaphragm thickness or decreased diaphragm muscle mass. The whole process happened due to inflammatory reaction that usually appeared on patients in Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Thus, this study was aimed to find the relationship between neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) with diaphragm thickness of critical patients in ICU.

Each patient was examined for a blood sample of 6 ml of venous blood taken from the cubital vein using a vacuum tube without anticoagulants. Blood samples were centrifuged at a speed of 3500 rpm for 20 minutes. Samples are processed with abbott® devices, to obtain neutrophil and serum lymphocyte levels. Plasma samples are stored in the refrigerator -20 C. The patient's diaphragm thickness was measured on days 0, 3, 5 and then the measurement was compared. Diaphragm thickness was measured in patients using mechanical ventilation in intensive care rooms.
