This strategy could be particularly useful in the context of a major health emergency in centers with limited resources.', 'detailedDescription': "The PRM is based on the known effect of gravity on transpulmonary pressure (PL). Two principles explain its mechanism of action: 1) the first indicates that atelectasis and poorly ventilated areas of the lung can improve their aeration by putting the lung in the highest position. Opposite lateral decubitus causes that upper lung to have a higher PL and allow a recruiting effect at moderate airway pressures. 2) The second principle is based on Laplace's Law and postulates that once the upper lung is recruited, it remains without lung collapse if a sufficient level of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is applied. Based on these two precepts, PRM consists of sequentially moving the patient from the supine to the left lateral decubitus to recover the aeration of the right lung. After that, the patient is placed in the right lateral position to recruit the left lung; keeping the right lung without collapse by continuous use of PEEP. Finally, the patient returns to the supine position looking for an improvement in the distribution of ventilation and global pulmonary aeration, with a subsequent improvement in gas exchange and pulmonary mechanics."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'This physiological study will enroll 12 adult ARDS patients admitted to the COVID Intensive Care Unit of Rebagliati Hospital.
