Official title
The Improving Care of Acute Lung Injury Patients (ICAP) Study
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS) is a severe lung condition that causes respiratory failure. Individuals with ALI/ARDS often require the use of a respirator or artificial breathing machine, known as a mechanical ventilator, while in an intensive care unit (ICU). Past research has shown that improved short-term clinical outcomes result from the use of a protective mechanical ventilation technique for the lungs. This study will evaluate the effects of lower tidal volume ventilation, and other aspects of critical illness and ICU care, on the long-term clinical outcomes of individuals with ALI/ARDS.
