Brief Summary

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

The aim of the study is to examine the effects of two different levels of PEEP on subsequent standard recruitment maneuver.

Detailed Description

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

In this study we will examine the effects of two levels of PEEP on subsequent recruitment maneuver. In the first group a recruitment maneuver will be performed in patients who are ventilated with PEEP level set according to the ARDS network algorithm.

Patients will then be crossed over to a study arm where another recruitment maneuver will be performed while PEEP is adjusted according to esophageal pressure measurements.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

PEEP guided by Esophageal pressure + Recruitment maneuver.

Upon patient recruitment Esophageal balloon will be inserted and esophageal / pleural pressure will be measured. Thereafter, Inspiratory pressures and PEEP will be adjusted according to well established criteria. Inspiratory pressure and PEEP will be adjusted to achieve the best lung compliance possible while not exceeding transpulmonary end Inspiratory pressure of 25 to 30 cm H2O, and at the same time maintaining a positive transpulmonary end expiarory pressure of not more than 5 cm H2O.

A recruitment maneuver with application of 40 cm H2O for up to 40 seconds will be performed.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

PEEP guided by Esophageal pressure + Recruitment maneuver

Intervention Type OTHER

Upon patient recruitment Esophageal balloon will be inserted and esophageal / pleural pressure will be measured. Thereafter, Inspiratory pressures and PEEP will be adjusted according to well established criteria. Inspiratory pressure and PEEP will be adjusted to achieve the best lung compliance possible while not exceeding transpulmonary end Inspiratory pressure of 25 to 30 cm H2O, and at the same time maintaining a positive transpulmonary end expiarory pressure of not more than 5 cm H2O.

A recruitment maneuver with application of 40 cm H2O for up to 40 seconds will be performed.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

20 Man and women older than 18 years will be recruited.

Patients with acute respiratory failure of any cause who are mechanically ventilated according to the ARDS network recommendations will be considered for inclusion to the study.


1 - Low Total Respiratory system compliance (CT), defined as less than 50ml/cmH2O. 2 - PaO2 /FIO2 ratio of less than 300. 3 - Need for a PEEP greater than 10 cmH2O to maintain SaO2 of \> 90%. 4 - PCO2 over 60 mmHg, or PH less than 7.2 that is attributed to respiratory acidosis.

Exclusion Criteria

Patients with any of the following will be excluded from the study. Previous lung or chest wall surgery, previous esophageal surgery, known Achalasia or any other esophageal motility or spasm disorder, presence of chest thoracostomy tube, and any significant chest wall abnormality such as kyphoskoliosis.
