CT scans could help tailor ventilator settings for sepsis patients

This study looks at two ways of setting a breathing machine (ventilator) for people with sepsis who need help breathing. One method is personalized based on each patient's lung measurements, while the other is a standard approach. Researchers will use CT scans to see how air moves in the lungs and compare which method causes less strain. The goal is to find better ways to protect the lungs during mechanical ventilation.
