About This Trial
The prone position leads to a more homogeneous distribution of ventilation by inflation of collapsed alveoli and reduction in alveolar hyperinflation. By employing EIT, the study can obtain a thorough comprehension of the ongoing alterations in regional ventilation before and after adopting the prone position. It is also anticipated that there is an impact on inflammation biomarkers before and aft…
