New ventilator mode tested in lung injury patients
NCT ID NCT00963066
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a new breathing machine mode called NAVA in 15 patients recovering from acute lung injury. The goal was to see how their bodies responded to different levels of support from the machine. The study did not aim to treat or cure the lung injury, but to gather information on how the new mode works.
