Prone Position and COVID-19: Mechanisms and Effects*

open access: yesCritical Care Medicine, 2022
Prone positioning was first applied in critically ill patients by Piehl and Brown (1) in 1976 who reported a marked oxygenation improvement in five patients with acute respiratory failure. This observation remained essentially a curiosity until the first

Impact of Prone Position in COVID-19 Patients on Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation*

open access: yesCritical Care Medicine, 2022
OBJECTIVES: Prone positioning and venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) are both useful interventions in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Combining the two therapies is feasible and safe, but the effectiveness is not known. Our
