Brief Summary:
Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Two Different Ventilatory Strategies in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Due to Community-acquired Pneumonia. The control strategy will be based on ARDSNet approach. The intervention group will receive a different ventilatory strategy based on positive end-expiratory pressure tailored according to compliance and limited driving pressure.
Detailed Description:
There is no consensus on the optimal ventilatory management of patients with community-acquired pneumonia that require mechanical ventilation and have acute respiratory distress syndrome. The traditional ventilatory approach (ARDSNet) is based on a fixed table for both end respiratory positive end-expiratory pressure according to inspired oxygen fraction. Alternatively, a strategy that tailors positive end-expiratory pressure according to compliance and limits driving pressure may be beneficial, but evidence is lacking.
We will perform an open label randomized controlled trial comparing both strategies.
