Dynamics of regional lung aeration determined by electrical impedance tomography in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome

BACKGROUND: Lung tissue of patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is heterogeneously damaged and prone to develop atelectasis. During inflation, atelectatic regions may exhibit alveolar recruitment accompanied by prolonged filling with air in contrast to regions with already open a...
