What this Trial Is About

This research aims to understand how different body positions affect breathing effort, lung ventilation, and air distribution in critically ill adults who are on mechanical ventilation. It focuses on assessing the effects of Automatic Lateralization Therapy on respiratory drive and lung function compared to standard supine positioning. The study also evaluates whether combining this therapy with Flow Bias enhances respiratory and functional outcomes. The study is a quasi-experimental, non-randomized physiological intervention conducted in an ICU setting.
