Standardising Terminology, Classification, Diagnostic Recognition and Reporting of Patient-ventilator Interactions: Protocol for an International Delphi Consensus Study

Sponsor: Al Adan Hospital Kuwait

Summary

Patient-ventilator interaction describes how a mechanically ventilated patient's breathing effort aligns with ventilator support. Terminology and classification of abnormal patient-ventilator interaction remain inconsistent across clinical practice, research, and education. The INTERACT study is an international modified Delphi consensus study that will invite multidisciplinary experts to rate and refine statements on terminology, classification, diagnostic recognition, and reporting standards for patient-ventilator interaction. The study aims to develop an internationally agreed glossary, taxonomy, and minimum reporting dataset to improve communication, education, research comparability, and future automated detection systems.
