Electrical Impedance Tomography: A Monitoring Tool for Ventilation-induced Lung Injury.

The article focuses on investigating whether electrical impedance tomography (EIT) can detect the onset and progression of ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) in an animal model of VILI. It is reported that the study involved a retrospective analysis of healthy female domestic pigs ventilated for 48 hours, aiming to assess changes in lung electrical impedance compared to other parameters such as oxygenation, respiratory mechanics, and lung pathology.
