Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Acute Lung Injury
Positive End Expiratory Pressure (PEEP)
ARDS (Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome)
Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT)
Registration Number
NCT04247477
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Angers
Brief Summary

The aim of the this study is to assess the short term physiological effects of 3 ventilation strategies for adult patients with ARDS admitted to intensive care unit.

Two of those strategies are based on electrical impedance tomography (EIT) monitoring.
