Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this study is to compare High Frequency Pressure Ventilation (HFPV) to conventional mechanical ventilation.

Hypothesis: Patients placed on HFPV will have significantly higher number of ventilator-free days compared to patients placed on a conventional volume mode.

Detailed Description

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

This is a prospective, randomized, controlled trial comparing HFPV to conventional ventilator modes in the support of burn patients with respiratory failure. Burn patients who develop the need for mechanical ventilation present a variety of challenges that call for innovative therapeutic options. Even in the absence of smoke inhalation injury,decreased chest wall compliance from full thickness burns as well as massive fluid requirements are just a few variables that make it difficult to achieve gas exchange goals when attempting to apply conventional lung protective strategies recommended by the ARDS Net investigators.
