Variations in regional respiratory system compliance (Crs). N = 11. Variation in regional respiratory system compliance (expressed as timepoint regional compliance—baseline regional compliance, Crs). White dots represent non-dependent lung regions (ventral), black dots represent dependent lung regions (dorsal). ECC external chest-wall compression. *P < 0.05 of absolute values of different non-dependent regional Crs timepoints vs. non-dependent regional Crs baseline
