Integrated Care of Co-morbidities vs Standard Care After AHRF in the Intensive Care Unit (TMIRA)

May 10, 2023 updated by: CTU

Integrated Care of Co-morbidities vs Standard Care After Acute Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure in the Intensive Care Unit: a Randomized Controlled Trial

The study will assess the potential benefit of implementing a complex bundle of interventions to treat important - often unrecognized - comorbidities in patients surviving an episode of Acute Hypercapnic Respiratory Failure (AHRF). This study will also provide a comparative analysis of the costs and health consequences of two alternative strategies to inform decision making about healthcare. All interventions are individually evidence-based and seem sound to hypothesize that implementing such interventions might improve patient's outcome and reduce the financial burder of repeated hospitalization in AHRF survivors.
