What this Trial Is About
To assess whether changes in electrical impedance - measured using an electrical impedance tomography (EIT) chest belt - can be used to derive changes in pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) in critically ill patients when compared to invasive gold-standard PAP measured using pulmonary artery catheter (PAC).
