Observational study in patients with chronic respiratory diseases (chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, bronchiectasis, interstitial lung diseases, neuromuscular diseases, obesity-hypoventilation syndrome...) admitted in intensive care unit for acute respiratory failure. The main objective is to determine the prevalence of right ventricular (RV) dysfunction in this population and to analyze the impact of such a complication on outcomes (survival at day-28, duration of non-invasive or mechanical ventilation, duration of hospital stay). RV function will be assessed by echocardiography at admission, after 3 days and at discharge. Plasma NT-proBNP and troponin levels will be collected.
