In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Study Design: A randomized, open-label, parallel-group clinical trial comparing the efficacy and safety of jet nebulization versus vibrating mesh nebulization of sulfate polymyxin B in mechanically ventilated patients with carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacterial pneumonia. Participants: 144 patients (72 per group) will be enrolled from December 2023 to December 2025. Interventions: Group A: 25mg polymyxin B + 5ml sterile water via jet nebulizer (respirator-assisted). Group B: 25mg polymyxin B + 5ml sterile water via vibrating mesh nebulizer (respirator-assisted). Both groups receive additional intravenous polymyxin B (2.0mg/kg loading dose, followed by 1.25mg/kg every 12h) starting 12h after nebulization. Treatment duration: 14 days. Key Procedures: Nebulization parameters: Fixed ventilator settings (SIMV+PSV mode, tidal volume 8ml/kg, PEEP 6cmHโ‚‚O). Bronchoalveolar lavage
