EIT Monitoring in the ICU
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study uses a special belt (EIT) to monitor the lungs of patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). It aims to help doctors better understand how your lungs are working.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 12 years or older.
- You must already be wearing an EIT belt (a special belt that checks your lungs).
- You must not have said you don't want to be in the study.

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 study tests if the position of a special inflatable belt (used to see how your lungs are doing) changes how doctors set the best breathing pressure for patients with ARDS. It aims to find the best way to adjust the ventilator to help your lungs heal.
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 lung imaging belt (EIT) to see if the lungs are over-inflated in patients with severe breathing problems (ARDS) when they lie on their stomach. It aims to help doctors adjust ventilator settings for better lung protection.
This study uses a special imaging belt (EIT) to check if the lungs are being overstretched when patients with severe breathing problems are placed on their stomach (prone position). It may help doctors adjust breathing machines more safely.
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.
