This study evaluates the effectiveness of ultrasonographic measurement of liver and spleen displacement as a predictor for extubation outcomes in intubated patients. Among 55 patients studied, those successfully extubated showed higher mean organ displacements, with a sensitivity of 84.4% and specificity of 82.6% for predicting successful extubation, outperforming traditional weaning parameters. The findings suggest that ultrasonography could be a valuable non-invasive tool in assessing diaphragm function a
