The project introduces Liquid Foam Therapy (LIFT) as a novel method for delivering surfactants to treat Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). This approach aims to improve surfactant delivery in adults by using foam, which can distribute evenly in the lungs, overcoming limitations of current methods.
Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is an inflammatory lung condition caused e.g. by sepsis, pneumonia and head or chest injury, affecting annually 133,000 people in Europe and 255,000 in the US. ARDS is characterized by the depletion of the lungs’ inner liquid coating (pulmonary surfactant), which reduces surface tension forces and allows the lungs to expand.
Patients span across all age groups and lay anesthetized in the intensive care unit with mortality rates at 40%.
