Prone Positioning for ARDS. still misunderstood and misused [PDF]
, 2018 Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a clinical syndrome characterized by a non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema with bilateral chest X-ray opacities and hypoxemia refractory to oxygen therapy and low level of positive end-expiratory pressure (1 ...

Prognostic value of pulmonary dead space in patients with the acute respiratory distress syndrome. [PDF]
, 2011 A study published in the previous issue of Critical Care demonstrates that measurement of the pulmonary dead-space fraction is superior to hypoxemia as an indicator of a favorable physiologic response to prone positioning in patients with severe acute ...

Prone Position in Mechanically Ventilated COVID-19 Patients: A Multicenter Study [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2021 Background: The prone position (PP) is increasingly used in mechanically ventilated coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients. However, studies investigating the influence of the PP are currently lacking in these patients. This is the first study to investigate the influence of the PP on the oxygenation and

Extracorporeal support for patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome. [PDF]
, 2014 Extracorporeal membrane oxygen (ECMO) has been used for many years in patients with life-threatening hypoxaemia and/or hypercarbia. While early trials demonstrated that it was associated with poor outcomes and extensive haemorrhage, the technique has ...

Awake prone position reduces work of breathing in patients with COVID-19 ARDS supported by CPAP
Annals of Intensive Care, 2021 Background The use of awake prone position concomitant to non-invasive mechanical ventilation in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) secondary to COVID-19 has shown to improve gas exchange, whereas its effect on the work of breathing remain ...
