-
How side-to-side body positioning affects breathing and lung aeration in ventilated ICU patients
This project will test whether automatic side-to-side positioning (automatic lateralization), with or without added flow bias, improves breathing drive, ventilation, and lung aeration in adult ICU patients on mechanical ventilation.
-
Monitoring diaphragm electrical activity and breathing effort during ventilator weaning
We will see if surface diaphragm EMG, esophageal pressure, and oxygen use measured during a spontaneous breathing trial can predict who will fail to wean from the ventilator in the ICU.
-
ICU rehabilitation for adults on invasive mechanical ventilation
This project will look at rehabilitation approaches used in ICUs worldwide to see if they relate to outcomes for adults who have been on invasive mechanical ventilation for at least 48 hours.
-
Evaluating Heart Function During Breathing Trials in ICU Patients
This study tests which type of breathing trial is easiest on the heart for ICU patients who are trying to breathe on their own without help from machines.
-
Personalized PEEP and Prone Positioning in Severe ARDS
This trial tests whether tailoring PEEP levels and using prone positioning with or without muscle relaxation can improve outcomes for adults with severe ARDS in the ICU.
