NCT ID NCT02939963
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 20 adults in the ICU who were on breathing machines (ventilators) and ready to try breathing on their own. Researchers compared two methods: one using low pressure support and another using automatic tube compensation (ATC) to offset the tube's resistance. The goal was to see which method better measures the patient's true breathing effort. This was a small, completed study that helps refine weaning techniques.
