Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The secondary aims are to determine the impact of proportional assist-ventilation (PAV) versus volume assist-control (VAC) ventilation by evaluating the number of ventilation-free days, development of Intensive Care Unit (ICU) delirium, use of sedative/ analgesic medications, use of antipsychotic medications, length of stay in the intensive care unit and hospital, reintubations within 24 hours, adverse events, and mortality in the two groups of patients.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Hypothesis The investigators hypothesize that 50 % of patients approached will agree to enrollment in this clinical trial over a period of 4 months. The investigators hypothesize 80% of the patients meeting inclusion criteria will be approached in a timely manner. The investigators also propose that PAV mode ventilation will be superior to ACV based on clinical outcome measurements.
Study Subjects Consecutive adult patients requiring invasive mechanical ventilation on low ventilator support (as mentioned above) for a period not greater than 48 hrs will be enrolled if they or their proxy consent for the study. The study will be performed in the intensive care units of University of Louisville and Jewish Hospital in Louisville, KY.
