Multi-site Randomized Clinical Trial of Horizontal Positioning to Prevent and Treat Pulmonary Complications in Mechanically Ventilated Critically Ill Patients

The University of Texas Health Science Center, Houston·interventional·Posted Oct 11, 2007·Updated Apr 6, 2016

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Manual turn and kinetic therapy bed for Pneumonia, Ventilator Associated. Completed, enrolled 16 participants.

Detailed Summary

Intensive care unit (ICU) patients on respirators are at high risk for preventable pulmonary complications (PPC). Turning these patients from side to side may reduce PPC, but carries the burden of decreases in blood pressure and oxygenation. The investigators hypothesize that there will be no difference in PPC or adverse events when ICU patients on respirators are turned by nurses or by an automated turning bed.
