Severe covid-19 pneumonia has posed critical challenges for the research and medical
communities. Older age, male sex, and comorbidities increase the risk for severe disease …

In ARDS patients, the change from supine to prone position generates a more even
distribution of the gas–tissue ratios along the dependent–nondependent axis and a more …

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia is an evolving disease. We will focus on
the development of its pathophysiologic characteristics over time, and how these time …

Background The effect of awake prone positioning on intubation rates is not established.
The aim of this trial was to investigate if a protocol for awake prone positioning reduces the …

Objective: Coronavirus disease 2019 is a heterogeneous disease most frequently causing
respiratory tract infection, which can induce respiratory failure and multiple organ …

Background Awake prone positioning (APP) improves oxygenation in coronavirus disease
(COVID-19) patients and, when successful, may decrease the risk of intubation. However …

Study objective To review the effects of prone position and supine position on oxygenation
parameters in patients with Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). Design Systematic …

Importance Awake prone positioning may improve hypoxemia among patients with COVID-
19, but whether it is associated with improved clinical outcomes remains unknown. Objective …

COVID-19 pneumonia is associated with hypoxaemic respiratory failure, ranging from mild
to severe. Because of the worldwide shortage of ICU beds, a relatively high number of …

Background Prone positioning in non-intubated spontaneously breathing patients is
becoming widely applied in practice alongside noninvasive respiratory support. This …
