About

This single-center observational study aims to assess the effects of continuous high-frequency oscillation (CHFO) and continuous positive expiratory pressure (CPEP) therapy on lung recruitment using electrical impedance tomography (EIT) in spontaneously breathing patients admitted to the intensive care unit.
