What this Trial Is About
The goal of this physiological intervention study is to unravel the (patho)physiological mechanisms and potential clinical benefits of a pre-specified early switch from controlled to assisted ventilation in mechanically ventilated adult patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (PaO2/FiO2 ratio \< 200 mmHg). The intervention is that participants will be switched from controlled to assisted ventilation when PaO2/FiO2 ratio \> 200 mmHg. The primary endpoint is the change in regional lung stress (as derived by electrical impedance tomography) when switching from controlled to assisted ventilation and until a successful or failed switch.
