Lower-tidal volume ventilation has been largely accepted as a means of lung protective ventilation, but the mechanism for its effectiveness is not yet clear, and debate remains as to how best to choose positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). Reduction in driving pressure (plateau pressure minus PEEP) has been suggested as a possible means to minimize ventilator-induced lung injury. This protocol aims to identify the range of safe paired-settings of PEEP and tidal volume, with selection guided by driving pressure and the stress index, a tool to recognize potential lung hyperinflation during mechanical ventilation.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Admitted to the Intensive Care Unit\n* Receiving invasive mechanical ventilation via endotracheal or tracheostomy tube\n* Presence of ARDS by Berlin Criteria (acute onset bilateral pulmonary infiltrates incompletely explained by left heart failure together with a PaO2/FiO2 of \\<300 or SpO2/FiO2 \\<315)\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Inability to obtain surrogate consent\n* Presence of specified comorbidities:\n\n 1. pregnancy\n 2. pre-existing severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, defined as FEV1 documented \\< 1L or baseline hypercapnia\n 3. cerebral edema\n 4. known intra-cranial abnormality\n 5. acute coronary syndrome\n* Endotracheal or tracheostomy cuff leak\n* Chest tube with persistent air leak\n* Severe hemodynamic instability (defined as attending judgment that the patient is unable to safely tolerate ventilator manipulations)\n* Presence of spontaneous respiratory activity as evidenced by examination of the ventilator waveform tracing\n* Intrinsic PEEP of \\> 5 cmH2O\n* Assessment of study staff or patient's attending physician that the patient would not be a good study participant"}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT02871102', 'briefTitle': 'Stress Index to Individualize Mechanical Ventilation in ARDS', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Vanderbilt University Medical Center'}, 'officialTitle': 'Right-Sizing Tidal Volume in ARDS: Using the Stress Index to Optimize Mechanical Ventilation to Individual Respiratory Mechanics', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '160770'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Intervention Arm', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: Recruitment Maneuver with PEEP and Tidal Volume Optimization']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Recruitment Maneuver with PEEP and Tidal Volume Optimization', 'type': 'PROCEDURE', 'description': 'A staircase recruitment maneuver will be performed on pressure control ventilation followed by a decremental PEEP trial.
