Summary

The goal of this study is to identify patients with reverse triggering who's the potential to breath spontaneously is hidden because of the ventilator management strategy by performing a simple 30sec-test with includes reducing the support from the ventilator. The findings will provide clear advice to doctors on how to better care for these patients.

This will be a pilot randomized clinical trial including 70 adult patients (aimed at equal number of men and woman) sedated and under controlled ventilation having reverse triggering. The study will be conducted in two ICUs: 1) St. Michael's Hospital, Toronto Canada and 2) Toronto Western Hospital, Toronto, Canada.

Conditions

  • Reverse Triggering
  • Patient Ventilator Dyssynchrony

Interventions

OTHER

brief test

The intervention is a simple brief test as follows: With the ventilator set with the patient clinical settings, it will be performed an up to 30sec-long or two inspiratory effort and-expiratory occlusion maneuver on the ventilator and/or switch the patient to pressure support for up to 30sec-long to assess the presence of intrinsic respiratory rate. If an intrinsic respiratory rate ≥8 breaths per minute is present and P/F ratio is ≥150 it will be performed a 5-minute "test" in pressure support ventilation with the pressure support level to match the clinical setting of the patient. If the patient tolerates well 5 minutes in pressure support (see criteria below) the clinical team will be informed: \- It will be indicated that the patient tolerated 5 min of PSV and suggest to the clinicians and physician in charge to transition the patient to pressure support ventilation plus suggest reducing sedation.
