No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The prone position during mechanical ventilation in patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is able to improve oxygenation and thus reduce mortality. The objective of the study is to evaluate the ability of the prone position to increase the oxygenation of the patient with SARS-cov-2 pneumonia.

Conditions

  • Sars-CoV2

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Prone position

The objective of the study is to value the ability of the prone position to increase the oxygenation of the patient with SARS-cov-2 pneumonia as a lung recruitment index; the PP also prevents the need for intubation and the consequent risk deriving from the procedure itself and from the predisposition to develop superinfections (VAP).
