Children with acute respiratory failure admitted to the PICU (pediatric intensive care unit)
Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive, bedside monitoring technique that provides continuous, real-time information about the regional distribution of the ventilation.~There are very few data in children admitted to the PICU (pediatric intensive care unit) and the aim of the study is to describe the distribution of the ventilation in children with acute respiratory failure and to study the impact of the interventions in the PICU (change in ventilatory settings, change in position, suction, respiratory kinesiotherapy,…)
