No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Covid-19 associated Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) may present with profound hypoxemia not fully explained with pulmonary infiltrates. Accordingly, how prone positioning improves oxygenation in these patients is not fully known. The investigators conducted a study among patients with severe Covid-19 ARDS receiving prone position for at least 16 hours. End Expiratory Lung Volume (EELV) was measured with Nitrogen wash-in/wash-out technique before (Supine Position 1- SP1), during (Prone Position - PP) and after (Supine Position 2 - SP2) prone positioning.
