Summary
This study looks at whether safely sitting up patients with severe lung injury (ARDS) can improve oxygen levels as well as the standard face-down position does. Researchers will test this in 32 adults who are already on a breathing machine. The goal is to see if the sitting-up method is safe and practical in everyday hospital care.
