U.S., April 2 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07504731) titled 'Trunk Inclination, Positive End-expiratory Pressure, and Lung Recruitability' on March 20.
Brief Summary: This multicenter, physiological, observational study hypothesizes that in moderate to severe ARDS, trunk inclination unloads the chest wall, but its impact on lung mechanics depends on PEEP levels and lung recruitability.
Study Start Date: March 20
Study Type: OBSERVATIONAL
Condition:
Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS)
Intervention:
OTHER: Specific lung recruitment maneuvers and decremental PEEP steps
Specific lung recruitment maneuvers will be performed to measure the potential for lung recruitment. Followed by a...
