To investigate the relationship between cardiac function and extubation readiness in infants using speckle tracking echocardiography. Cardiac function combined with established clinical parameters may better identify readiness for extubation. Pilot prospective observational study. Mechanically ventilated infants were included. Cardiac function was assessed by echocardiography immediately before extubation. Systolic and diastolic function in the left (LV) and right ventricles (RV) were assessed by measurement of longitudinal strain (L
