A Study Of Real-Time Waveform Acquisition And Analysis In ICU Patients

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to prospectively collect and organize mechanical ventilator and ICU monitor waveform data in real time from ICU patients receiving mechanical ventilation.

Participation eligibility

Participant eligibility includes age, gender, type and stage of disease, and previous treatments or health concerns. Guidelines differ from study to study, and identify who can or cannot participate. There is no guarantee that every individual who qualifies and wants to participate in a trial will be enrolled. Contact the study team to discuss study eligibility and potential participation.

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Adult patients (≥18 years old).

  • Patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) requiring continuous physiological monitoring.

  • Patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation for at least 24 hours (mandatory for ventilator waveform collection).

  • Ventilated patients on controlled or assisted ventilation modes (e.g., volume control, pressure control, pressure support, adaptive modes).

  • Patients connected to Philips patient monitoring systems capable of recording ECG, arterial pressure, central venous pressure (CVP), and SpO₂ waveforms.

  • Patients with invasive arterial blood pressure (A-line) and/or CVP monitoring, if available.

  • Patients with an anticipated ICU stay of ≥24 hours, ensuring sufficient data collection.

  • Patients connected to mechanical ventilators with an RS-232 port for waveform extraction.

  • Patients on ICU monitors capable of continuous waveform recording and storage.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients will be excluded from the study if they meet any of the following criteria:

  • Age & Non-ICU Patients

  • Patients under 18 years of age

  • Patients not admitted to the ICU (e.g., general ward, emergency department, or step-down units)

  • Non-Ventilated Patients

  • Patients who are not receiving invasive mechanical ventilation

  • Patients on non-invasive ventilation (NIV), high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC), or supplemental oxygen alone

  • Short ICU Stay or Early Discontinuation

  • Patients expected to be in the ICU for less than 24 hours

  • Patients anticipated to be extubated or weaned from mechanical ventilation within 24 hours

  • Inadequate Data Collection

  • Patients on ventilators without an RS-232 port, preventing waveform extraction

  • Patients on ICU monitors incapable of continuous waveform recording

  • Incomplete or corrupted waveform data that cannot be analyzed

  • Do-Not-Resuscitate / Do-Not-Intubate Orders

  • Patients with DNR or DNI orders at the time of ICU admission

  • Neuromuscular Disorders Affecting Respiratory Effort

Note: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria may apply.
