Summary

This study looks at whether a step-by-step care plan (called TheraPPP) helps patients with severe breathing failure (ARDS) survive and spend less time on a ventilator. The plan includes proven treatments like protective ventilation, paralysis, and prone positioning. About 20,000 adults in Alberta ICUs will be included. The goal is to make sure every patient gets the best known care.
