New treatment option for ARDS (Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome)
Official title Real-Time Algorithm-Driven Ventilation Feedback to Improve Lung-Protective Ventilation in Patients With ARDS (REALVENT-study)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07307066
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The REALVENT trial is designed to evaluate whether a real-time, algorithm-driven ventilation feedback strategy can improve lung-protective ventilation (LPV) achievement rates in critically ill patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation. This multicentre randomised controlled trial will compare real-time respiratory waveform monitoring with automated feedback against standard ICU care.

Who can take part
Ages 18 to 75
You may be able to join if
- Age between 18 and 75 years
- Receiving invasive mechanical ventilation via endotracheal intubation at the time of screening
- Initiation of invasive mechanical ventilation within the past 24 hours
- PaO₂/FiO₂ ≤ 200 mmHg on PEEP ≥ 8 cmH₂O or, if arterial blood gas is unavailable: SpO₂/FiO₂ ≤ 235 with SpO₂ ≤ 97%
- Chest imaging (chest X-ray or CT) showing bilateral pulmonary infiltrates not fully explained by pleural effusions, lobar collapse, or pulmonary...
You likely can't join if
- Receipt of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) or high-frequency oscillatory ventilation at screening
- Brain death or anticipated withdrawal of life-sustaining treatment within 72 hours
- Pregnancy
- Known neuromuscular disease affecting spontaneous respiratory effort
- Prisoners or individuals unable to provide informed consent or surrogate consent
- Simultaneous enrollment in another treatment ICU study
