Lung scanner may predict breathing tube removal success
NCT ID NCT06876792
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a new way to predict if patients on breathing machines can safely have the tube removed. Researchers used a special imaging technique called electrical impedance tomography (EIT) to measure how well the lungs fill with air during a breathing trial. The goal was to see if this method could better predict who would need to go back on the machine within 48 hours, compared to standard tests. The study involved 150 adults with acute respiratory failure.
