About this study

Official title: Effect of Positive End Expiratory Pressure Titration on the End-expiratory Lung Volume Measured by the Nitrogen Dilution Technique in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Mechanical ventilation of the patient with acute respiratory distress syndrome is one of the first therapies.

Read the detailed description

The application of positive end expiratory pressure is recommended but the question remains "How to set the best positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) level for each patient? ". Different titration techniques have been studied on oxygenation and respiratory mechanics parameters without reaching a consensus. Currently we have a module that is connected to the ventilator to collect the patient's lung volume. It will therefore allow us to optimize the settings of the ventilator and to set the best level of positive end-expiratory pressure "best peep" in order to individualize our treatment for each patient.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Observe end-expiratory lung volume change during an increasing PEEP titration procedure in patients with moderate to severe ARDS

    Measured: 1 day

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Define a threshold of end-expiratory lung volume variation to help determine optimal PEEP

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Analyzing the effect of PEEP titration on static compliance and dynamic strain

    Measured: 1 day

  3. Effect of PEEP titration on hematosis via the calculation of the Pao2/Fio2 ratio for each PEEP step thanks to the measurement of Pao2 on arterial gasometry

    Measured: 1 day

  4. Study the correlation between % change in end-expiratory lung volume and improvement in hematosis (Pao2/Fio2)

    Measured: 1 day

  5. Compare end-expiratory lung volume variations according to the type of ARDS (severity, focal or diffuse, pulmonary or extra-pulmonary etiology)

    Measured: 1 day

  6. Evaluate the hemodynamic tolerance of this procedure with the mean arterial pressure obtained by invasive blood pressure, noradrenaline dosage variation per procedure, lactate (obtained by arterial blood gas)

    Measured: 1 day
