Sponsor's own description

The objective is to diagnose earlier and more precisely the occurrence of a weakness neuromuscular syndrome at the end of intensive care, or within 28 days if the stay is longer than 28 days. The amyotrophy has been shown to be proportional to muscle strength in healthy subjects. The amyotrophy can be reliably evaluated by measuring the cross-sectional area of the right femoral muscle. The hypothesis is that amyotrophy measured by muscle ultrasound can allow an early and reliable diagnosis of neuromuscular weakness syndrome (NMWS), even though the measurement of the MRC score (the Gold Standard), has shown its limitations in intensive care in terms of reliability and delayed diagnosis. Moreover, this syndrome is associated with a loss of functionality and a deterioration of long-term quality of life. One of the objectives is thus to determine if the muscular ultrasound allows a prediction of the occurrence of these alterations far from the intensive care. Early rehabilitation has shown a benefit on mortality, duration of stay, mechanical ventilation and on functional alteration after intensive care. This is why an earlier and more precise means of diagnostic of this pathology is searched. The target population is therefore patients from 18 to 80 years hospitalized in intensive care for prolonged stay (\> 5 days), and prolonged ventilation (\> 48H).
