Personalized ventilation for ARDS patients on breathing machines
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a personalized ventilation method that adjusts how the breathing machine delivers air based on your lung's air and blood flow match. It aims to improve breathing for people with moderate to severe ARDS who are already on a ventilator and will be placed on their stomach.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 84 years old.
- You have moderate to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
- You are on a breathing machine (invasive mechanical ventilation).
- Your doctor plans to have you lie on your stomach (prone position).
- You do not have any of the excluded conditions like pregnancy, severe blood pressure instability, brain pressure issues, lung air leaks, pacemaker, chest burns, very high sodium, or current participation in another trial.

This trial tests whether using a special imaging technique (electrical impedance tomography) to set the breathing machine's pressure can improve oxygen levels and lung function in patients with moderate to severe ARDS, a serious lung condition.
This study looks at how different levels of positive pressure from the breathing machine affect blood flow and fluid buildup in patients with a serious lung condition called ARDS. It may help doctors find the best ventilator settings to reduce stress on your body.
This trial tests a special monitoring technique called EIT (electrical impedance tomography) to help doctors set the best breathing machine pressure for people with ARDS. It may help improve oxygen levels and protect the lungs.
This trial tests a more tailored way to set the amount of air delivered by a ventilator in people with severe ARDS. The goal is to see if personalized breathing settings can improve breathing and heart-related monitoring while patients are in intensive care.
This study tests a smarter way to set the breathing machine's pressure in people with serious lung failure (ARDS) who are also being turned onto their stomachs to help their lungs. It aims to see if using a special chest monitor (EIT) can improve oxygen levels and lung function.
This study compares two ways of measuring how well your lungs can open up, to help doctors find the best breathing machine settings for you. It aims to improve oxygen levels and breathing support in the intensive care unit.
