Turning patients for longer could be key to survival in critical lung injury

NCT ID NCT07126964

Summary

This study is testing if keeping patients with severe Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) lying on their stomachs for longer periods (40 hours) saves more lives than the standard shorter sessions (16 hours). It will involve 800 critically ill patients who are on breathing machines in intensive care units. The main goal is to see if the extended positioning reduces deaths within 28 days by helping the lungs heal more effectively.
