First seen Feb 01, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 8 times
Summary
This study looks at 50 adults on breathing machines for acute respiratory failure. Researchers compare two methods—electrical impedance tomography (EIT) and the recruitment-to-inflation ratio—to see how well they predict lung reopening. Participants undergo a standard procedure to adjust ventilator pressure while being monitored. The goal is to improve how doctors assess lung function without direct treatment benefit.
