The influence of gravity on electrical impedance tomography measurements during upper body position change

Objective: The aim of the study was to examine the influence of gravity on regional ventilation measured by electrical impedance tomography (EIT) with the standard electrode belt position at the 5th intercostal space during tilting from supine to sitting positions. Methods: A total of 30 healthy vol...
