Brief summary

Electrical impedance tomography was used to monitor changes in pulmonary perfusion distribution and V/Q ratio before and after iNO in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome to investigate the factors predicting iNO reactivity and the physiological mechanism underlying changes in oxygenation.
