Use of Electrical Impedance Tomography for Optimization of Positive End-Expiratory Pressure in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Usual care and PEEP titration by EIT for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome and ARDS. Completed, enrolled 16 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Doctors follow a standard ventilator management strategy when making adjustments to the breathing machine to optimize the amount of oxygen into the lungs. The purpose of this study is to assess whether the EIT (electrical impedance tomography) device can be an additional useful tool for ventilator management and identifying the ideal positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP).

Timeline
Interventions
Intervention is the standard basic lung protective ventilation strategy used at the University Hospital Respiratory Care at Michigan Medicine.
PEEP Titration procedure involves two phases: a recruitment phase followed by a gradual reduction in the end-expiratory pressure phase (Decremental PEEP).
