Can a simple pressure boost protect ventilated lungs?

NCT ID NCT07358039

Summary

This study is testing if a brief, controlled increase in breathing machine pressure right after clearing a patient's breathing tube helps keep their lungs properly inflated. Researchers will compare this technique to standard suctioning alone in 32 sedated ICU patients on ventilators. The goal is to find the best way to prevent lung collapse during this routine but potentially harmful procedure.
