Summary

Introduction:

The main manifestation of COVID-19 pneumonia is acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), which in some cases can be more severe than intubation, extracorporeal membrane venous oxygenation (VV-ECMO) to ensure hematosis. Despite support from VV-ECMO, some patients may remain hypoxemic. One possible therapeutic procedure for these patients is the application of the prone position.

Objective:

The main aim of this study was to investigate the modification of the PaO2/FiO2 ratio, the compliance of the respiratory system in VV-ECMO with refractory hypoxemia. The secondary objective was to evaluate the safety and feasibility of the inclined position for ECMO.

Methods:

the investigators reviewed the electronic records and lists of all 23 COVID-19 patients. were placed for the first time in PP with an average duration of 16 h . patient characteristics, pre-ECMO characteristics, ventilator/ECMO settings, and changes in ventilator/ECMO settings and blood gas analysis before and after PP.
