Electrical Impedance Tomography-Guided Identification of the Optimal Lateral Position in Postoperative ARDS

2026년 6월 22일 업데이트: Ruijin Hospital

Effect of Left Lateral, Right Lateral, and Supine Positioning on Ventilation-Perfusion Matching Assessed by Electrical Impedance Tomography in Adult Postoperative Abdominal Surgery Patients With ARDS: A Prospective Randomized Crossover Physiological Study

This prospective, randomized crossover physiological study evaluates the effects of lateral positioning (left lateral position and right lateral position) versus the supine position on ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) matching in adult postoperative abdominal surgery participants with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Bedside electrical impedance tomography (EIT) will be used to quantify regional ventilation and perfusion (perfusion derived from an intravenous tracer bolus administered during a brief breath-hold) and to calculate global "normal V/Q" (normal V/Q, %). Oxygenation, respiratory mechanics (when applicable), and hemodynamics will be recorded concurrently. Feasibility and safety of the positioning protocol will also be assessed.

상세 설명

Postoperative abdominal surgery patients commonly develop atelectasis, diaphragmatic dysfunction, and heterogeneous ventilation. When complicated by ARDS, ventilation-perfusion mismatch may worsen oxygenation and ventilatory efficiency. Prone positioning may be limited in this population because of abdominal incisions, drains, and intra-abdominal pressure concerns. Lateral positioning is frequently used in critical care and may improve V/Q coupling by changing gravitational gradients, chest wall mechanics, and pulmonary blood flow distribution; however, quantitative bedside evidence comparing left and right lateral positions is limited.

EIT is a radiation-free bedside functional imaging technique that can continuously monitor regional ventilation. In combination with a brief breath-hold and an intravenous tracer bolus, EIT can derive perfusion-related signals, enabling bedside quantification of V/Q matching.

In this randomized crossover study, each participant undergoes three body positions-supine position, left lateral position, and right lateral position-in a randomized order. The sequence (including whether left lateral or right lateral is performed first) is determined by random-number-based randomization. Each position stage lasts 60 minutes. After entering each position, participants are stabilized for 45 minutes before EIT measurements. EIT ventilation recording is obtained after stabilization, followed by an EIT perfusion assessment performed during a breath-hold of at least 8 seconds (actual breath-hold time recorded). During the breath-hold, a rapid intravenous tracer bolus is administered: 10 mL of 10% sodium chloride solution or 10 mL of 5% sodium bicarbonate solution, injected over 2-3 seconds via a central or peripheral venous line. Between position stages, participants return to the supine position for a 45-minute washout period. The primary endpoint is the difference in global normal V/Q (%) among the three positions. Secondary endpoints include other EIT-derived V/Q indices, oxygenation indices, respiratory mechanics, hemodynamic changes, and feasibility/safety outcomes.
