Zapping muscles to fight ventilator weakness

NCT ID NCT07363902

Summary

This study is testing a new device called heepSync that uses gentle electrical pulses on the skin to stimulate a patient's breathing muscles while they are on a ventilator. The goal is to see if this can safely help prevent the muscles from weakening, which is a common problem for ICU patients. Researchers will check if the device works properly with the patient's own breathing and measure its effects on muscle strength.
