The overall objective of the study is to conduct an observational study involving intensive care unit patients receiving mechanical ventilation and determine if there are differences in diaphragm thickness ultrasound measurements during expiratory and inspiratory phases in a controlled and spontaneous mode. For patients receiving sedatives, an additional set of measurements will be taken during a standard of care interruption of sedatives
