POStoperative INTELLiVENT-adaptive support VEntilation in cardiac surgery patients (POSITiVE) II-study protocol of a randomized clinical trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

One single-center randomized clinical trial showed that INTELLiVENT-adaptive support ventilation (ASV) is superior to conventional ventilation with respect to the quality of ventilation in post-cardiac surgery patients. Other studies showed that this automated ventilation mode reduces the number of manual interventions at the ventilator in various types of critically ill patients. In this multicenter study in patients post-cardiac surgery, we test the hypothesis that INTELLiVENT-ASV is superior to conventional ventilation with respect to the quality of ventilation.

Methods

"POStoperative INTELLiVENT-adaptive support VEntilation in cardiac surgery patients II (POSITiVE II)" is an international, multicenter, two-group randomized clinical superiority trial. In total,
