Oxygen sweet spot: new study aims to cut ventilator time for ICU patients
NCT ID NCT06501118
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether training ICU staff to keep oxygen levels between 90-96% helps patients on breathing machines recover faster. Researchers will track how many days patients are free from the ventilator and how often dangerously low oxygen goes unnoticed. The goal is to improve care for critically ill adults in the ICU.
