Lead Sponsor:

University of Sao Paulo General Hospital

Conditions:

Asynchrony, Patient-Ventilator

ARDS

Eligibility:

All Genders

18+ years

Phase:

NA

Brief Summary

The Pendelluft phenomenon is an important cause of lung damage in spontaneously breathing mechanically ventilated patients since it considerably increases the stress on the lung parenchyma in the depe...

Detailed Description

Respiratory mechanics and regional ventilation will be monitored by electrical impedance tomography (Enlight 1800 and 2100, Timpel). Esophageal and gastric pressures will be obtained by placing an eso...
