Ultra Protective Ventilation Without Extracorporeal Circulation in Severe ARDS Patients (VT4ARDS)
- Conditions
- Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
- Interventions
- Other: Tidal volume reduction to 4 ml/kg Predicted Body Weight (PBW)
- Registration Number
- NCT02816372
- Lead Sponsor
- Hospices Civils de Lyon
- Brief Summary
Despite the use of protective ventilation, neuromuscular blocking agent and prone position, ARDS mortality remains high (30%-50%) in observational studies, and pneumothorax rate in randomized controlled trial remains stable (10%). The driving pressure (the ratio of tidal volume over respiratory system compliance) has recently been strongly associated with ARDS mortality, suggesting that tidal volume reduction below 6ml/kg may offer mortality benefit. While extracorporeal CO2 removal technique are currently under investigation in association with tidal volume reduction
