In normal subjects breathing spontaneously, compliance has been shown to be influenced by the lung volume from which deflation started. We wondered whether this would also be true for patients with acute respiratory failure who required mechanical ventilation and we accordingly studied 15 such patie
Lung elastance and resistance increase in the supine posture. To evaluate the effects of change in posture on regional lung mechanics at different lung volumes, lung elastance and resistance were measured at graded volume subdivisions and three esophageal levels at seated and supine body positions,
