Summary

The RECRUIT study is a multinational, multicenter physiological observational study conducted by the PLUG working group. It is a single-day study (1.5-2 hours) associated with specific lung (de)recruitment maneuvers to verify the feasibility of measuring the potential for lung recruitment in mechanically ventilated patients with ARDS by electrical impedance tomography (EIT).

Conditions

  • Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS)

Interventions

OTHER

Specific lung recruitment maneuvers

Specific lung recruitment maneuvers will be performed to measure the potential for lung recruitment at different levels of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) provided by the mechanical ventilator. Electrical impedance tomography signals, synchronized signals of airway pressure and flow, esophageal pressure (if available), and volumetric capnography (if available) will be recorded continuously, during the time span of the protocol for offline analysis.
