1 Feasibility and Physiological Effects of a Postural Recruitment Maneuver in Patients With Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Due to COVID-19 Infection

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if a postural recruitment maneuver (PRM) improves the aeration and distribution of lung ventilation in patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) caused by COVID-19 infection; without the need to reach high airway pressures as in the standard lung recruitment maneuver and / or place the patient in prone position. This strategy could be particularly useful in the context of a major health emergency in centers with limited resources.

NCT04475068 Sars-CoV2 ARDS Procedure: Lateral Position (left and right lateral decubitus)
MeSH:Respiratory Distress Syndrome, Newborn Respiratory Distress Syndrome, Adult Acute Lung Injury

Primary Outcomes

Description: Lung aeration measured by ultrasound reaeration score, ranges from 0 (all regions are well aerated) to 36 (all regions are consolidated).

Measure: Effects of a postural recruitment maneuver in lung aeration

Time: Through study completion (up to 24 hours)

Description: Distribution of ventilation measured by EIT (distribution and changes in the impedance in AU, arbitray units)

Measure: Effects of a postural recruitment maneuver in distribution of ventilation

Time: Through study completion (up to 24 hours)

Description: Gas exchange measured by blood gas analysis (PaO2, PaCO2, in mmHg) and capnography (end-tidal CO2, in mmHg)

Measure: Effects of a postural recruitment maneuver in gas exchange

Time: Through study completion (up to 24 hours)

Description: Respiratory mechanics measured by esophageal balloon (esophageal pressure, transpulmonary pressure, in cmH2O)

Measure: Effects of a postural recruitment maneuver in respiratory mechanics

Time: Through study completion (up to 24 hours)

Description: Hemodynamic data measured by invasive arterial monitoring (mean arterial pressure, in mmHg)

Measure: Effects of a postural recruitment maneuver in hemodynamic

Time: Through study completion (up to 24 hours)

Secondary Outcomes

Description: Oxigenatory tolerance evaluated with pulse oximeter (arterial oxygen saturation, in percentage)

Measure: Feasibility of a postural recruitment maneuver

Time: Through study completion (up to 24 hours)
