Summary

The prone position strategy for patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is simple and cost-effective from the first description on its use in patients with acute respiratory failure to improve hypoxemia. Different studies have investigated its safety and efficacy in various clinical settings, demonstrating that its early use in combination with non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIV) or high-flow oxygen therapy can reduce intubation rate and mortality in ARDS. In the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, high-value medicine and resource optimization are critical.
