A Pilot Study Investigating the Detection of Episodes of Severe Patient-Ventilator Asynchrony

United States30 participantsStarted 2021-07-21

Plain-language summary

The goal of this study is to determine what percent of severe patient-ventilator asynchrony is detected in mechanically ventilated patients in the adult ICU and to determine delays in detecting those asynchronies by the staff that were correctly identified, and whether asynchrony status recorded during intermittent assessments by respiratory therapists is representative of periods in between such assessments.
