Summary

Subjects: Patients aged 19 and older who are currently in the ICU and undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation. Methods: The study involves performing non-invasive repetitive phrenic nerve stimulation in ICU patients on mechanical ventilation. Stimulation protocol: The intensity and position of phrenic nerve stimulation were individualized. The frequency was set to 10Hz, 15Hz, and 20Hz. The duration of stimulation was adjusted according to the set inspiration time of mechanical ventilation.
