ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying how doctors use fluid and vasopressor therapy in critically ill patients who are on invasive ventilation, which means they need a machine to help them breathe. The researchers want to understand the current practices worldwide regarding these treatments and see how they relate to patient outcomes, such as how long patients stay on the ventilator, how long they are in the hospital, and their overall survival rates.

To participate in this study, patients must be at least 16 years old, admitted to an intensive care unit, and receiving invasive ventilation for more than 24 hours. The research team will closely monitor the treatments given and the resulting health outcomes. This study is currently recruiting participants and aims to gather valuable information that could improve care for critically ill patients in the future.
