Preliminary Investigation of optimaL Oxygen Targets (PILOT) Trial

Mechanical ventilation of ICU patients universally involves titration of the fraction of
inspired oxygen (FiO2) to maintain arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2). Despite decades of ICU
practice, however, the optimal SpO2 target remains unknown. Current guidelines offer
divergent recommendations as to the optimal SpO2 target. Therefore, we propose a
2,250-patient cluster-randomized cluster-crossover trial comparing a lower SpO2 target (90%;
range 88-92%), an intermediate SpO2 target (94%; range 92-96%), and a higher SpO2 target
(98%; range 96-100%) with regard to the outcome of days alive and free of invasive mechanical
ventilation.


Inclusion Criteria:

1. Age ≥ 18 years

2. Receiving mechanical ventilation through an endotracheal tube or tracheostomy

3. Admitted to the study ICU or admission to the study ICU from the emergency department
is planned

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Known pregnancy or beta hCG level greater than the laboratory upper limit of normal in
a patient capable of becoming pregnant

2. Known to be a prisoner
