Original Source: ARDSnet Protocol vs. Open Lung Approach in ARDS
Many patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome or ARDS need breathing support that is provided by a machine called a ventilator or respirator. The purpose of this study is to find out if a new method of setting the ventilator for patients with severe ARDS is better than the standard, commonly used way of setting the ventilator.

Mechanical Ventilation Leads to Diaphragm Muscle Thinning
A new study shows that mechanical ventilation has an unloading effect on the respiratory muscles, leading to diaphragmatic atrophy...

This commentary looks at 2 recent trials that pitted the use of oscillatory ventilation against conventional mechanical ventilation for patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Med...
Daily sedation interruption does not benefit critically ill, mechanically ventilated patients
For critically ill patients receiving mechanical ventilation, daily sedation interruption did not reduce the duration of mechanical ventilation or appear to offer any benefit to patients, and may have...
Mechanical ventilation at lower level among patients without lung injury linked with better outcomes
Among patients without acute respiratory distress syndrome, protective mechanical ventilation with use of lower tidal volumes (the volume of air inhaled and exhaled during each breath) was associated...
