New Clinical Insights into Acute Respiratory Failure

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to invite submissions for a Special Issue of the Journal of Clinical Medicine entitled “New Clinical Insights into Acute Respiratory Failure.” This Special Issue aims to bring together high-quality original research that enhances our understanding of the mechanisms, monitoring, and management of acute respiratory failure in both critical care and emergency settings.

We welcome original research articles addressing topics of acute respiratory failure, including mechanisms of lung injury and patient–ventilator asynchrony. Studies involving advanced monitoring, respiratory mechanics, respiratory drive assessment, electrical impedance tomography (EIT), lung and diaphragm ultrasound, and esophageal manometry are highly encouraged.

We also invite studies focusing on respiratory support strategies, including high-flow nasal oxygen therapy (HFNO), non-invasive ventilation (NIV), conventional and non-conventional modes of invasive mechanical ventilation, the effects of body positioning, and studies involving patients on veno-venous ECMO.

This Special Issue aims to provide clinicians and researchers with new insights that may contribute to improved patient care. We warmly encourage you to submit your latest work and to disseminate this invitation within your networks.

Dr. Christophe Guervilly
Guest Editor
