Ventilo Trial Summary

This trial is testing a new smartphone app designed to help reduce dead space during mechanical ventilation.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who are on mechanical ventilation in stable condition and not scheduled for prone positioning soon. They must have an arterial catheter but can't be on or expected to need ECMO, nor have a low body temperature post-cardiac surgery.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a smartphone app designed to help with protective ventilation strategies like heated humidifiers, reducing tidal volume, and using heat moisture exchangers (HMEs) during mechanical breathing support.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include issues related to changes in lung humidity levels such as dryness or excess condensation, discomfort from tidal volume adjustments, and possible complications from different ventilator settings.
