Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The use of neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA) in ARDS patients has not been extensively investigated. The aim of the study is to show a reduction of the mortality rate of ARDS patients.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The use of neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA) in ARDS patients has not been extensively investigated. It has been recently demonstrated that a systematic 48-h infusion of NMBA is associated with a significant improvement in oxygenation as compared with a control group (Gainnier et al., Crit Care Med 2004). Moreover, a trend towards a reduction in the mortality rate has been observed. The aim of the study is to show a reduction of the mortality rate of ARDS patients.
