NEUROVENT Trial Summary

This trial is testing a computerized ventilator protocol in iCentra that is designed to improve outcomes for patients with acute brain injury by targeting a normal partial pressure of carbon dioxide while using the lowest ventilator volume required.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults (18+) with acute brain injury, either from non-traumatic causes like stroke or anoxic brain injury, or from traumatic events. They must be starting mechanical ventilation in the emergency department or ICU at an Intermountain Healthcare hospital.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a computerized ventilator protocol aiming to maintain normal carbon dioxide levels in blood while using the lowest necessary ventilator volume. It's designed to prevent further lung damage and improve outcomes for patients with acute brain injuries.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While not explicitly listed, potential side effects may include discomfort due to lower ventilator volumes and possible complications if optimal carbon dioxide levels are not maintained.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Lung Protective VentilationExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Subjects with acute brain injury (traumatic brain injury and non-traumatic brain injury) will receive neuro lung protective ventilation which targets a normal arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide with the lowest tidal volume possible (6 to 8 ml/kg predicted body weight). Protocols for oxygenation and weaning from the ventilator will also be followed.
