Effect of PEEP on Lung Recruitment and Homogeneity Over Time in Moderate to Severe ARDS

NCT03140579 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL

Last updated 2022-08-17

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study evaluates the effect of airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) on lung homogeneity and recruitment in patients with moderate to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).

It will do this by comparing the homogeneity of ventilation and recruitment prior to a patient being ventilated on APRV, and at 30, 60 and 120 minutes after starting APRV.

Conditions

  • ARDS
  • Critical Illness
  • Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury

Interventions

OTHER

APRV

Airway pressure release ventilation is a method of inverse ventilation, where high levels of positive end expiratory pressure are maintained to optimise oxygenation with brief releases of pressure to allow ventilation and release carbon dioxide. It is an approved and frequently used method of ventilation.
