Early Use of Airway Pressure Release Ventilation (APRV) in ARDS (NCT04221737)
Early Use of Airway Pressure Release Ventilation (APRV) in Patients With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
Airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) is a time-cycled, pressure controlled, intermittent mandatory ventilation mode with extreme inverse I:E ratios. Currently it is considered as a non-conventional ventilatory mode. The investigators aim to compare APRV with conventional mechanical ventilation (MV) in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
