Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The changes of local pulmonary ventilation should be registered with an electric impedance tomography (EIT) before and after a dilatative tracheotomy. The hypothesis is that the EIT cannot show changes in local ventilation due to the tracheotomy.
