Article Synopsis
  • Proportional assist ventilation with load-adjustable gain factors (PAV+) is a modern mechanical ventilation method that adjusts assistance based on a patient’s breathing efforts, potentially offering benefits like better patient-ventilator synchrony compared to traditional pressure support ventilation (PSV).
  • A multi-centre randomized controlled trial aims to find out if PAV+ leads to faster successful extubation in patients with acute respiratory failure compared to PSV, involving around 20 hospitals worldwide.
  • The study will randomize participants who struggle with weaning onto either ventilation method, measuring primary outcomes like the time to extubation and other recovery metrics.
