NCT03271905

Brief Summary

Aerosol therapy is widely used in intensive care in critically ill patients that use mechanical ventilation (MV). However, there is a lack of standardization about aerosol performance in this group of patients. Thus, this study aims to evaluate the effect of nebulization performed in different ventilatory modes on lung function and regional pulmonary distribution of critical patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. It is a clinical trial, crossover, randomized, controlled and blind. Three interventions with bronchodilators will be performed: in the Pressure Controlled Ventilation mode (PCV) with positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) = 85% of autoPEEP, in the PCV mode with PEEP = 15 cmH2Oand in the Pressure Support Mode (PSV). Pulmonary function data will be evaluated through Electrical Impedance Tomography to evaluate the efficacy of the bronchodilator in different ventilatory modes.
