NCT07341113
Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive, bedside monitoring tool that provides real-time information on regional ventilation and perfusion. In particular, EIT has the potential to guide individualized mechanical ventilation in obese patients by revealing how gravitational and positional factors alter regional lung behavior. Assessing the effects of different horizontal positions on both ventilation and perfusion may help optimize respiratory management strategies tailored to body habitus. By comparing obese and non-obese healthy participants across different positions, this study aims to provide novel insights into the postural effects on lung aeration and perfusion distribution, and to highlight the role of EIT in tailoring individualized ventilation strategies.
NCT07366541
High-Flow Nasal Cannula (HFNC) therapy is widely used to treat acute respiratory failure. However, predicting therapy failure remains challenging as conventional indices rely on intermittent measurements and cannot provide continuous, objective monitoring. Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) enables non-invasive, real-time assessment of regional lung ventilation. This study evaluated whether an EIT-derived Flow Index (FI) could predict HFNC therapy failure within 48 hours.
NCT07207772
This study is a prospective, single-center, single-blind, randomized controlled clinical trial. Patients scheduled for laparoscopic bariatric surgery will be selected and randomly assigned to either the EIT-guided individualized PEEP group (Group P-eit) or the control group (Group P-8). Group P will be ventilated using the PEEP value determined by EIT, while Group C will be ventilated with a fixed PEEP value of 8 cmH2O.The primary outcome is the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) within 72 hours after surgery.
NCT04247477
The aim of the this study is to assess the short term physiological effects of 3 ventilation strategies for adult patients with ARDS admitted to intensive care unit. Two of those strategies are based on electrical impedance tomography (EIT) monitoring.
