Sonographic Diaphragm Function in AECOPD
Sponsor: Isala
Summary
The study will be conducted as a single-center, prospective cohort study. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the responsiveness of sonographic parameters of diaphragm to detect change in Borg score for dyspnea during hospitalisation for AECOPD without respiratory acidosis.

Ultrasound of the diaphragm
Sonographic parameters of the diaphragm: * Thickening Fraction (TF); (Diaphragm thickness end-inspiration- Diaphragm thickness end-expiration) / Diaphragm thickness end-expiration. (continuous variable). * Diaphragm end-expiratory thickness: Diaphragm thickness at end-expiration (continuous variable) * Diaphragm excursion (DE): diaphragm inspiratory amplitude during deep breathing (continuous variable).
