Integrating electrical impedance tomography and transpulmonary pressure monitoring to personalize PEEP in hypoxemic patients undergoing pressure support ventilation

Abstract Monitoring with electrical impedance tomography (EIT) during a decremental PEEP trial has been used to identify the PEEP that yields the optimal balance of pulmonary overdistension and collapse. This method is based on pixel-level changes in respiratory system compliance and depends on fixe...
