PreFIX Trial Summary

More than 300,00 people in the United States experience acute respiratory failure and require mechanical ventilation every year. Of those that recover and are extubated, the most common reason for reintubation is recurrent respiratory failure. Our study proposes a novel methodology for identifying those patients most at risk for recurrent respiratory failure.

Eligible Conditions
  • Weaning Failure
  • Mechanical Ventilation Complication
