Summary

This study looks at two different ways to set a breathing machine (ventilator) for people with sepsis who need help breathing. Researchers will take special CT pictures of the lungs to see how air moves and stretches the lungs. They want to find out if a personalized ventilator setting is better than the usual one. The goal is to help doctors make smarter choices to protect the lungs.
