What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests whether a real-time lung imaging tool called electrical impedance tomography (EIT) can help doctors choose the best ventilator pressure for patients with lung injury after severe trauma or major surgery. The trial will compare EIT-guided pressure settings to the standard method in 80 intensive care patients. The goal is to improve oxygen levels and reduce complications like lung damage from the ventilator itself.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
electrical impedance tomography system (Enlight 2100)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a better way to set ventilator pressure for trauma or post-surgery patients with lung injury, potentially improving oxygen levels and reducing lung damage.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 80 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The technique requires special equipment and expertise, and may not improve outcomes significantly over standard care.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 80 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

Mar 2025

Expected to finish

Dec 2026

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Ages

18 to 90 years

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Mechanically ventilated surgical intensive care patients with trauma- or postoperative-associated moderate to severe ARDS, as defined by the 2023 Global Definition of ARDS. Exclusion Criteria: * Age \<18 or \>90 years. * Severe acute brain injury or acute stroke with Glasgow Coma Scale \<8. * Thoracic trauma with pneumothorax or pneumomediastinum. * End-stage diseases under palliative care (e.g., metastatic cancer, cirrhosis, end-stage renal disease). * Severe multiorgan failure with expected survival \<7 days. * Conditions requiring prolonged mechanical ventilation (e.g., Guillain-Barré syndrome, cervical spinal cord injury). * Contraindications to hypercapnia (e.g., elevated intracranial pressure, acute coronary syndrome). * Prior use of advanced respiratory therapies (e.g., ECMO, inhaled nitric oxide, prone positioning, high-frequency ventilation). * Pregnancy, breastfeeding, or skin lesions at electrode placement sites. * Implanted electrical devices interfering with EIT (e.g., pacemaker, ICD). * Known allergy to electrode materials. * Refusal to participate or concurrent enrollment in another study
