NCT ID NCT07480655

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether measuring the difference in carbon dioxide levels between two types of blood samples can help doctors treat adults with serious injuries better. About 60 ICU patients will be split into two groups: one gets treatment guided by this CO2 gap, the other gets standard care. The goal is to see if this extra monitoring reduces time on a breathing machine and improves recovery.
