Open Suction vs. Closed Suction in ARDS

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

• Registration Number: NCT05537974
• Lead Sponsor: Izmir Dr Suat Seren Chest Diseases and Surgery Education and Research Hospital

Brief Summary

The alveoli tend to collapse in patients with ARDS. Endotracheal aspiration may increase alveolar collapse by decreasing the end-expiratory lung volume. The hypothesis is that closed endotracheal aspiration led to less end-expiratory volume loss when compared to open endotracheal aspiration.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
End expiratory lung volume (EELV)	One minute before suctioning, 1, 10, 20, 30 minutes after suctioning	End expiratory lung impedance (EELI) will be measured wit electric impedance tomography. Change in EELI representative of change in EELV.
