Scientific title
Study acronymPAV vs PS
Study objectivesTo access the success rate and efficacy of Proportional Assist Ventilation (PAV) with adjustable gain factors versus Pressure Support (PS) in critically ill patients receiving controlled mechanical ventilation.
Ethics approval(s)Ethics committee of Heraklion University Hospital (reference number: 6122), date of approval: 30/05/2006.
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedRespiratory disorders requiring mechanical ventilation
InterventionAfter enrolment PAV with adjustable gain factors or pressure support will be instigated and the patients will be monitored during the following 48 hours. Patients who meet any of the predefined failure criteria during this period are returned to controlled mechanical ventilation.
Intervention typeOther
Primary outcome measure1. PAV success rate
2. Sedation doses
Secondary outcome measures1. Weaning time
2. Intensive Care Unit (ICU) mortality
3. Hospital mortality
