Which intubation timing is best for breathing failure? new study aims to find out

NCT ID NCT07189078

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 07, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at two different approaches to deciding when to place a breathing tube in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (dangerously low oxygen levels). One strategy is more liberal (intubate earlier to prevent complications from low oxygen), while the other is more restrictive (wait to avoid risks of the breathing tube itself). The goal is to see which approach leads to better outcomes, such as fewer days on organ support and lower death rates. The study will enroll 200 adults in intensive care.
