A Validation Study of a New System for Measuring the End Expiratory Lung Volume During Mechanical Ventilation

Completed
Conditions
Respiratory Failure
Registration Number
NCT00405002
Lead Sponsor
Policlinico Hospital
Brief Summary

In this study the investigators aim to evaluate a new system dedicated to estimate the end expiratory lung volume, by measuring the VO2-VCO2, during mechanical ventilation compared to the helium dilution technique and the computed tomography (CT) scan.

Detailed Description

In this study we aimed to evaluate a new system dedicated to estimate the end expiratory lung volume, by measuring the VO2-VCO2, during mechanical ventilation compared to the Helium dilution technique and the CT scan. We will compare the data considering the CT scan data as the gold standard.
