In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This study aims to evaluate the effect of ventilator hyperinflation combined with body positioning on arterial blood gases in patients with ventilator-associated pneumonia. Forty-two mechanically ventilated patients will be randomly assigned into two groups receiving the intervention in either supine or lateral decubitus positions. Arterial blood gases will be assessed over a 6-day intervention period. The findings are expected to provide evidence regarding the optimal positioning strategy to enhance the effectiveness of ventilator hyperinflation in improving gas exchange in critically ill patients.
