Electrical impedance tomography in seriously ill patients
This study looks at how well electrical impedance tomography (EIT), a safe imaging method that measures how air and blood move through the lungs, works in seriously ill patients. If you are a respiratory therapist or a part-time respiratory therapy doctor or nurse working in China, you can join by completing an online questionnaire.

This trial tests whether using electrical impedance tomography (EIT), a safe and non-invasive monitoring technique, helps doctors set the ventilator better for patients with low oxygen levels. It may improve your breathing support during mechanical ventilation.
This trial tests whether using a special imaging technique (electrical impedance tomography) to set the breathing machine's pressure can improve oxygen levels and lung function in patients with moderate to severe ARDS, a serious lung condition.
This trial uses a safe, non-invasive technique called EIT to monitor heart and lung function in children and young adults with certain heart or lung conditions, compared with healthy volunteers. It may help doctors better understand and manage these conditions.
This study uses a special imaging test called electrical impedance tomography (EIT) to look at how well the lungs work in people with lung diseases like COPD, asthma, pneumonia, or long-term effects from COVID-19. It also includes healthy volunteers to compare results.
This study tests a new, noninvasive way to measure lung function in people with pulmonary hypertension (high blood pressure in the lungs). It uses a belt with electrodes placed around your chest during a standard heart catheterization procedure.
This study tests a new, radiation-free imaging method (3D EIT) to see how well it measures lung ventilation compared to a standard 4D-CT scan. It may help doctors in the ICU assess lung function more safely and frequently in the future.
