Clinical Trial: Influence of Lung Recruitment Potential on PEEP Titration Strategies in ARDS Patients.

U.S., May 23 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07603310) titled 'Influence of Lung Recruitment Potential on PEEP Titration Strategies in ARDS Patients.' on May 18.

Brief Summary: Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by severe hypoxemia and diffuse alveolar collapse, often requiring invasive mechanical ventilation. Non-individualized mechanical ventilation settings can cause ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) prevents alveolar collapse, but its effect varies among individuals. The recruitment-to-inflation (R/I) ratio evaluates bedside lung recruitment potential. This pilot study aims to compare two individualized PEEP titration stra...
