Key Points

  • The aim is to track pleural line motion to evaluate lung overdistention using ultrasound technology.
  • Utilized lung ultrasound scans from healthy volunteers and ICU patients.
  • Applied open source algorithms for tracking pleural line motion.
  • Conducted visual inspection of images for assessment comparison.
  • Demonstrated feasibility of pleural line motion tracking.
  • Provided quantitative insights into pleural movement.
  • Showed that pleural line movement accurately assesses overdistention during mechanical ventilation.

Abstract

Pleural line motion tracking is feasible and provides quantitative insight into pleural movement based on data from healthy volunteers and visual inspection of images from ICU patients. Moreover, pleural line movement allows accurate assessment of overdistention during mechanical ventilation when compared with electrical-impedance tomography.
