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 in patients suffering from acute lung injury is to determine whether positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) setting guided by electrical impedance tomography (EIT) influences pulmonary gas exchange, lung mechanics, ventilation/perfusion matching and homogeneity of regional ventilation when compared to other PEEP setting strategies such as the open lung concept or the ARDSnet protocol.
