Background: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients require careful assessment before extubation to prevent failure, which is associated with poor outcomes. While current guidelines recommend weaning protocols, these are based on general respiratory failure studies rather than ARDS-specific data. Esophageal pressure (Pes) measurement provides direct assessment of inspiratory effort but is rarely utilized clinically. Objectives: This Japanese sub-study of EXTEND ARDS aims to evaluate whether: 1. ฮPes measurements during spontaneous breathing trials (SBT) can predict SBT failure 2. ฮPes measurements post-extubation can predict 48-hour extubation failure Methods: This prospective observational study will be conducted in Japanese ICUs. Esophageal pressure will be measured using standardized Nutrivent balloons (4mL volume) with Hamilton ventilators. Balloon placement in the low
