Respiratory Failure, Mechanical Ventilation
Mechanical Ventilation in the Emergency Department: A Prospective Cross-Sectional Study
Despite its life-saving potential, the mechanical ventilator has great potential to do harm. Despite years of research, the mortality in acute lung injury (ALI) remains very high.
- Conditions
- Respiratory Failure, Mechanical Ventilation, Acute Lung Injury
- Trial name
- NCT01628523
- Testing
- For inclusion in the study, patients will have to require mechanical ventilation either via an endotracheal tube or tracheostomy tube.
- Where
- 4 sites in United States
- Volunteers
- 219 people
- Sponsor
- Washington University School of Medicine
Acute Respiratory Failure With Hypoxia, Malnutrition
Supplemental Parenteral Nutrition in Pediatric Respiratory Failure
