Smart ventilator shows promise for brain injury patients
NCT ID NCT06367816
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a closed-loop ventilation system (INTELLiVENT-ASV) in 20 adults with acute brain injury who needed a breathing machine. The goal was to see if this smart system could provide safer, more effective breathing support compared to standard ventilation. Researchers measured how often the ventilator stayed in safe zones and monitored brain changes.

Active substance
Closed-loop ventilation mode (INTELLiVENT-ASV)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to safer, more automated breathing support for brain injury patients in intensive care.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with only 20 participants. Results may not apply to all brain injury patients, and the technology may not improve outcomes significantly.
