The deposition of aerosol in the human lung occurs mainly through a combination of inertial
impaction, gravitational sedimentation, and diffusion. For 0.5-to 5-μm-diameter particles and …

Objectives: To determine the validity of electrical impedance tomography to detect and
quantify the amount of tidal recruitment caused by different positive end-expiratory pressure …

Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive bedside imaging technique that
provides real-time lung ventilation information on critically ill patients. EIT can potentially …

There is growing evidence that supports EIT usage as a bedside measure to individually
optimize ventilator settings in critically ill patients in order to prevent ventilator-induced lung …

BACKGROUND: Head-of-bed elevation (HOBE) has been shown to assist in reducing
respiratory complications associated with mechanical ventilation; however, there is minimal …

Animal models of critical illness are vital in biomedical research. They provide possibilities
for the investigation of pathophysiological processes that may not otherwise be possible in …

The aim was to examine the effects of recumbency and anaesthesia on distribution of
ventilation in beagle dogs using Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT). Nine healthy …

Objective: The aim of the present study was to evaluate two previously proposed
approaches based on electrical impedance tomography (EIT) to assess pulmonary oedema …

The purpose of lung recruitment is to improve and optimize the air exchange flow in the
lungs by adjusting the respiratory settings during mechanical ventilation. Electrical …
