The investigators routinely apply EIT (Pulmovista, Dräger, Lübeck. Germany) in mechanically ventilated patients to optimize the ventilator settings .\n\nAn algorithm will be developed by the Institute of Technical Medicine, Furtwangen University, Germany. The algorithm will automatically detect changes in both PEEP and inspiratory pressures. For each PEEP step and/or changes in inspiratory pressure the difference in regional alveolar overdistension and alveolar collapse will be calculated. This makes it possible to select the optimal ventilator setting depending on the best compromise between alveolar overdistension and alveolar collapse.\n\nThe algorithm will be tested in 40 EIT guided mechanically ventilated patients. EIT measurements will be performed during an incremental and decremental PEEP trial. The EIT measurement will be performed in the same way as during standard clinical care. EIT data will be analysed offline by a ventilation practitioner with experience in EIT and with the newly developed algorithm. The resulting advice on optimal ventilator settings will be compared for inter-observer variability.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Post cardiac- surgery and patients with acute hypoxic respiratory failure', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Mechanically ventilated in a volume or pressure controlled mode\n* ventilator settings guided by EIT\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Participants who specifically opt-out regarding the use of the data for research purpose\n* Internal pacemaker, Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator\n* Skin lesions, dressings at the thorax, hindering belt placement\n* Thoracic circumference \\< 70 cm\n* Thoracic circumference \\> 150 cm\n* BMI \\> 50'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT03653806', 'briefTitle': 'Automated Analysis of EIT Data for PEEP Setting', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Maastricht University Medical Center'}, 'officialTitle': 'Comparing the Results of a Computer Analysis Algorithm With Clinical Decisions in a Patient With Electrical Impedance Tomography Guided Ventilator Settings Regarding Optimal Positive End Expiratory Pressure and Inspiratory Pressure', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '17-4-053'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'interventions': [{'name': 'computerized algorithm for automated analysis', 'type': 'OTHER', 'description': 'First: to develop a computerized algorithm for automated analysis of the electrical impedance tomography (EIT) data.
