Ventilator study aims to personalize breathing support for ARDS patients

This study looks at how two different levels of breathing support (called PEEP) affect lung function in patients with a severe lung condition called ARDS. The researchers want to see if the response differs based on the patient's lung stiffness. They will use a special imaging technique to measure how well air and blood flow match in the lungs. The goal is to learn how to personalize ventilator settings for better outcomes.
