Cyclic lung blood flow switch for moderate to severe ARDS
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a new way of temporarily stopping blood flow to the lungs (in a cycle) to help people with moderate to severe ARDS breathe better on a ventilator. It may help reduce lung damage and improve oxygen levels.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult on a breathing machine (ventilator).
- You were diagnosed with moderate to severe ARDS (a serious lung condition) within the last 72 hours.
- You do not have a chronic lung disease like pulmonary fibrosis or COPD that needs long-term oxygen.
- You do not have an untreated air leak in your chest or a collapsed lung.
- You are not pregnant and do not have unstable blood pressure or heart conditions.

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 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 trial uses a special lung imaging technique (EIT) to guide ventilator settings for people with ARDS. It may help improve breathing support and reduce lung injury.
This trial tests whether using electrical impedance tomography (EIT), a safe and non-invasive monitoring technique, helps doctors set the ventilator better for patients with low oxygen levels. It may improve your breathing support during mechanical ventilation.
This trial compares two ways to set the breathing machine for people with ARDS (a serious lung injury). One method uses a special imaging belt (EIT) to see how the lungs are working, while the other uses pressure measurements. The goal is to find the best way to adjust ventilator support to help you breathe more easily.
This study tests whether a special imaging technique called EIT (electrical impedance tomography) combined with a safe contrast injection can measure blood flow in the lungs of patients on breathing machines. If it works, it could help doctors better manage critically ill patients.
