What is the purpose of this trial?
This is a randomized, open-label study comparing intial settings made by clinicians with settings recommandation made by the VentilO application immediately after intensive care unit admission.The study will allow direct comparison of the frequency of acidosis when patients are ventilated using the parameters of the VentilO application versus parameters chosen by the clinician. The variables determined by the clinician or VentilO will be respiratory rate, tidal volume and resulting minute ventilation.
Eligibility Criteria
This trial is for adults over 18 who are intubated and admitted to intensive care right after cardiac surgery, needing controlled ventilation. It's not for patients without height and weight data on file, those breathing mostly on their own upon ICU arrival, or if they're extubated when they get to the ICU.Inclusion Criteria
