Abstract Background and Purpose: to study the relationship between weaning induced pulmonary oedema and the change in plasma proteins concentration so it can be used as non-invasive diagnostic tool of weaning induced pulmonary oedema. Aim of Work: to confirm the relationship between the changes in plasma protein concentration during a weaning trial and the diagnosis of weaning-induced pulmonary oedema. Methods: patients will be admitted in intensive care department of Ain shams University, from April 2017 to May 2018 after approval of ethical committee, with diagnosis of weaning induced pulmonary oedema will be subjected to full clinical assessment with history and examination and APACHE3 score at time of admission, echocardiographic criteria were used to diagnose weaning induced pulmonary oedema, data were collected and analyzed by SPSS program, using T- test, chi square and ANOVA. Results: increase of plasma protein level can be used as diagnostic tool for weaning induced pulmonary oedema. Conclusion: Haemoconcentration occurring during weaning induced pulmonary oedema lead to increase in plasma protein level which can be considered in diagnosis of weaning induced pulmonary oedema as an alternative to other invasive methods.
