A Protocol Comparing Temporary Transvenous Diaphragm Pacing to Standard of Care for Weaning From Mechanical Ventilation

This clinical investigation is an open-label, multi-center RCT to demonstrate the safety and effective performance of the Lungpacer DPTS (plus standard of care) as compared to Control (standard of care only) in patients aged 18 years or older who are receiving mechanical ventilation. Eligible Subjects will have received mechanical ventilation for ≥96 hours (4 days) and have failed two weaning attempts. The goal or outcome is to show a numerically greater proportion of subjects weaned in the Treatment (Lungpacer DPTS) group as compared to the Control group.
