Fig. 3From: External chest-wall compression in prolonged COVID-19 ARDS with low-compliance: a physiological studyVariations in partitioned respiratory mechanics. N = 9. Box plot representation of variations in lung (A) and chest-wall (B) compliance over the study period. Data are expressed as variation compared to baseline values (timepoint partitioned compliance—baseline partitioned compliance). The horizontal dashed line represents baseline.
