Electrical imaging lung monitor for ARDS outcomes
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests if a special imaging technique (Electrical Impedance Tomography or EIT) can help doctors better predict outcomes in people with severe lung injury (ARDS). The goal is to use regular, safe lung scans to guide breathing treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have ARDS (a severe lung condition) as diagnosed by the newest guidelines.
- Your age should be between 18 and 80 years.
- Doctors expect you to live longer than 24 hours from screening.
- You cannot have cancer that has spread to other parts of the body.
- You are not pregnant or recently gave birth, and you don't have severe mental health conditions that would prevent participation.

This trial tests a bedside breathing and lung-monitoring method that uses small electrodes on the chest. It is meant for people with moderate to severe ARDS (a serious lung inflammation problem) who are on a breathing machine, to help guide care.
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 uses a special imaging tool (electrical impedance tomography, or EIT) to see if lying on your side (high lateral recumbent position) helps improve lung function in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). It aims to find a better way to help patients breathe easier.
This study tests whether a special imaging technique called EIT (electrical impedance tomography) combined with a safe contrast injection can measure blood flow in the lungs of patients on breathing machines. If it works, it could help doctors better manage critically ill patients.
This trial studies two ways to measure how much of your lungs can open up again (recruitability) to help doctors set the best breathing machine pressure. It may help improve oxygen levels in patients with severe lung injury.
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.
