Brief Summary: The pathophysiological characteristics of respiratory failure on exacerbation of chronic pulmonary obstructive disease are the rapid deteriorate of respiratory symptoms, combined with aggravated flow limitation, gas trapping, dynamic pulmonary hyperinflation (DPH), therefore the intrinsic PEEP (PEEPi) increases. It is worthwhile to explore bedside methods to quantify the changes in dynamic pulmonary hyperinflation to guide safe and effective mechanical ventilation in airflow limited patients.
Detailed Description: The study hypothesizes that the electrical impedence tomography (EIT) measured the changes of end expiratory lung impedence (△EELI) could accurately predict the changes of end expiratory lung volume (△EELV) measured by passive expiratory in controlled mechanical ventilated exacerbation COPD patients. The research intended to conduct a research to explore the relationship between △EELI and △EELV induced by external PEEP changes in ventilated exacerbation COPD patients.
