Abstract

The article discusses the effectiveness of integrating electrical impedance tomography (EIT) in the assessment and clinical care of children managed with mechanical ventilation. Topics include a study on the use of EIT to determine the distribution of tidal volume/gas delivery during the recovery of children with acute respiratory failure and the issue of ventilator liberation in pediatrics.
