Background The aim of the study was to assess the feasibility of a standardized tracheostomy decannulation protocol in patients with prolonged tracheostomy referred to a rehabilitation hospital. Methods This prospective cohort study recruited conscious patients with prolonged tracheostomy who were referred to the pulmonary rehabilitation departmen...

Background Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive non-radiological regional lung function measurement. The aim of the study was to examine the feasibility of assessing ventilation distribution with EIT in scoliosis patients using generic and individual thorax shape. Methods Eight subjects were measured with EIT before scoliosis su...

Objective: Due to radiation exposures, not all patients with pneumonia would receive chest x-ray or CT measurements to confirm treatment effectiveness. The aim of the study was to examine the ability of using electrical impedance tomography (EIT) to evaluate the treatment effectiveness in such patient group. Methods: A total of 35 consecutive pa...

Objective: The aim of the study was to examine whether electrode belt of electrical impedance tomography (EIT) changed lung function in healthy volunteers, patients with respiratory muscle weakness (RMW) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Approach: In total 30 subjects were included (10 healthy volunteers, 10 subjects with RMW, ma...

... EIT is a low-cost, non-radiation, and real-time imaging technique. Therefore, it has been used in functional lung imaging [3][4][5][6][7][8], breast cancer detection [9,10], and brain injury monitoring [11][12][13]. Owing to variability in the electrical resistivity of tissues in the cranial brain and the changes in tissue resistivity following brain injury, EIT can enable dynamic bedside monitoring and risk, warning of brain injury [14]. ...
... Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a novel bedside detection medical imaging technology (13). It provides real-time images of air distribution and reflects the dynamic changes that cannot be captured by traditional chest X-ray (14). ...
