Heterogeneity of Lung Ventilation Determined by EIT During PFT in Patients With PRISM

Summary

To evaluate the demographic characteristics of PRISm population in patients with pulmonary function tests recommended by outpatient physicians. To investigate whether EIT can identify spatial and temporal heterogeneity of lung ventilation in individuals with PRISm during pulmonary function testing. To investigate the distribution patterns of lung ventilation in individuals with PRISm using this technique, and provide references and evidence for early screening, diagnosis, treatment monitoring, and prognostic evaluation.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

Age ≥18 years old. Patients who need to complete lung function tests assessed by outpatient physicians.

Exclusion Criteria:

Patients with a history of lung diseases other than COPD, previous lung surgery, or radiation therapy.

Patients who cannot be evaluated for EIT or who interfere with EIT results, such as implanted pacemakers/cardioverters.

Patients who cannot complete EIT or may interfere with EIT results, such as those with implanted pacemakers/defibrillators.
