Fig. 2

Electrical impedance tomography during standard and asymmetrical HFNC oxygen therapy. Variables are expressed as median, with an interquartile range [IQR]. Additional data are reported in Fig. S1. A: global lung aeration; B: lung aeration in dependent area; C: lung aeration in non-dependent area. Abbreviations: ns not significant, HFNC high-flow nasal cannula, dep dependent, non-dep non-dependent, EELI end-expiratory lung impedance (measured as percent change from VM)
