About this study

Official title: Adaptive Support Ventilation and Targeted Fluid Resuscitation in Patients With Severe Burn Injury: A Prospective Cohort Study

This prospective cohort study will evaluate the use of Adaptive Support Ventilation (ASV) together with targeted fluid resuscitation in adult patients with severe burn injuries requiring mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit.

Patients with extensive burns often develop respiratory failure and require both invasive mechanical ventilation and large-volume fluid resuscitation during the first days after injury. The study will assess whether the combination of ASV and targeted fluid resuscitation is associated with improved oxygenation, respiratory mechanics, fluid balance, and early clinical outcomes during the first 72 hours of intensive care.

Clinical data, ventilatory parameters, laboratory results, hemodynamic variables, and fluid resuscitation characteristics will be collected as part of routine clinical care. The findings may help optimize early intensive care management for patients with severe burn injuries and improve future treatment strategies.

Read the detailed description

Severe burn injury is frequently associated with profound systemic inflammation, capillary leak syndrome, hypovolemic shock, inhalation injury, and acute respiratory failure requiring invasive mechanical ventilation. The first 72 hours following injury represent a critical phase during which both ventilatory support and fluid resuscitation substantially influence organ function and subsequent clinical outcomes.

Adaptive Support Ventilation (ASV) is a closed-loop mechanical ventilation mode that automatically adjusts ventilatory parameters according to the patient's respiratory mechanics while maintaining predefined ventilation targets. This approach has the potential to optimize lung-protective ventilation, reduce unnecessary ventilatory stress, and improve patient-ventilator synchrony. At the same time, targeted fluid resuscitation aims to individualize fluid administration based on physiological and clinical parameters in order to maintain adequate tissue perfusion while minimizing fluid overload and the development of burn-related edema.

This prospective cohort study will evaluate the association between the combined use of Adaptive Support Ventilation and targeted fluid resuscitation during the early management of adult patients with severe burn injuries admitted to the intensive care unit. Patients will be managed according to institutional protocols, and no study-specific interventions will be introduced beyond routine clinical practice.

Clinical, respiratory, hemodynamic, and laboratory data will be collected prospectively during the first 72 hours after intensive care unit admission. Ventilatory variables, oxygenation indices, respiratory mechanics, fluid administration, cumulative fluid balance, urine output, and organ dysfunction parameters will be recorded using standard monitoring systems and electronic medical records.

The study aims to characterize the physiological effects of early Adaptive Support Ventilation combined with targeted fluid resuscitation and to evaluate their association with respiratory function, fluid balance, and early clinical outcomes in patients with severe burn injury. The findings are expected to provide real-world evidence to support optimization of intensive care strategies for critically ill burn patients.

Study groups in NCT07689097
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Adaptive Support Ventilation With Targeted Fluid ResuscitationAdult patients with severe burn injury requiring invasive mechanical ventilation who are managed using Adaptive Support Ventilation (ASV) together with targeted fluid resuscitation during the early phase of intensive care. All treatments are delivered as part of routine clinical practice, and clinical, respiratory, hemodynamic, and laboratory data are collected prospectively.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Oxygenation Index During the First 7 Days

    Oxygenation will be assessed using the PaO₂/FiO₂ ratio in adult patients with severe burn injury receiving Adaptive Support Ventilation and targeted fluid resuscitation.

    Measured: Baseline, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, and day 7 after ICU admission

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Static Lung Compliance

    Static lung compliance will be assessed using ventilator-derived respiratory mechanics.

    Measured: Baseline, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, and day 7 after ICU admission

  2. Driving Pressure

    Driving pressure will be calculated as plateau pressure minus positive end-expiratory pressure.

    Measured: Baseline, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, and day 7 after ICU admission

  3. Cumulative Fluid Balance

    Cumulative fluid balance will be calculated as total fluid intake minus total fluid output.

    Measured: Through day 7 after ICU admission

  4. Total Fluid Volume Administered

    Total fluid volume administered will be recorded and expressed as mL/kg/% total body surface area burned.

    Measured: First 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, and through day 7 after ICU admission

  5. Urine Output

    Urine output will be recorded as mL/kg/hour.

    Measured: First 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, and through day 7 after ICU admission

  6. Lactate Clearance

    Lactate clearance will be calculated from serial serum lactate measurements.

    Measured: Baseline, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, and day 7 after ICU admission

  7. Vasopressor Requirement

    Need for vasopressor support and duration of vasopressor therapy will be recorded.

    Measured: Through day 7 after ICU admission

  8. Mechanical Ventilation Duration During Early ICU Period

    Duration of invasive mechanical ventilation during the early observation period will be recorded.

    Measured: Through day 7 after ICU admission
