Ultrasonographic Features of Muscular Weakness and Muscle Wasting in Critically Ill Patients
Muscle wasting begins as soon as in the first week of one's ICU stay and patients with multi-organ failure lose more muscle mass and suffer worse functional impairment as a consequence. Muscle wasting and weakness are mainly characterized by a generalized, bilateral lower limb weakness. However, the impairment of the respiratory and/or oropharyngeal muscles can also be observed with important consequences for one's ability to swallow and cough. Muscle wasting represents the result of the disequilibrium between breakdown and synthesis, with increased protein degradation relative to protein synthesis. It is worth noting that the resulting functional disability can last up to 5 years after discharge, and it has been estimated that up to 50% of patients are not able to return to work during the first year after ICU discharge. In recent years, ultrasound has played an increasing role in the evaluation of muscle. Indeed, ultrasound allows an objective evaluation of the cross-sectional area, the thickness of the muscle, and the echogenicity of the muscle. Furthermore, ultrasound can also estimate the thickening fraction of muscle. The objective of this review is to analyze the current understanding of the pathophysiology of acute skeletal muscle wasting and to describe the ultrasonographic features of normal muscle and muscle weakness.
