Optimizing mechanical ventilation of intensive care patients with Artificial Intelligence
Started as an innovation project at the EKFZ for Digital Health, the IntelliLung project for the first clinical trial, coordinated by TU Dresden, will be follow-on funded by the European Union (EU HORIZON-HLTH-2021) from September 2022 after the successful completion of the EKFZ project. Scientists from the Medical Faculty of Dresden, together with 13 international partners, are testing a decision support system for mechanical ventilation of intensive care patients. The five-year research project is funded with a total of 5.98 million euros, of which 1.8 million euros will go to Dresden.
