Baking soda could help doctors see lung blood flow at the bedside
NCT ID NCT07542366
First seen Apr 23, 2026 · Last updated May 24, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study tests whether a common substance, sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), can be used as a safe contrast agent to create images of lung blood flow using a bedside imaging method called electrical impedance tomography (EIT). About 41 adults on breathing machines in the ICU will receive small injections of sodium bicarbonate and compare them to standard saline injections. The goal is to see if the images are clear and safe, which could lead to a simpler way to monitor lung function in critically ill patients.
