Meanings of prone positioning in English

Patients: Adult patients receiving prone positioning for moderate-to-severe acute respiratory distress syndrome.

The use of pre-ECMO prone positioning and neuromuscular blockers also increased during the same period.

However, there is limited evidence about which patients would gain most survival benefit from prone positioning.

Functional residual capacity was unchanged by prone positioning.

Conclusions: During mechanical ventilation, lung reinflation and recruitment by the prone positioning were primarily localized in the dorso-caudal lung.

After prone positioning, cephalocaudal inflation gradient was reduced, and gas and tissue proportions became more uniform along cephalocaudal axis.

This article aims to review all ocular complications associated with prone positioning, with a focus on challenges posed by COVID-19.

To more effectively administer advanced ARDS therapies, such as prone positioning, better approaches for ARDS recognition will also be required.

Introduction: The ongoing pandemic of COVID-19 brought to the fore prone positioning as treatment for patients with acute respiratory failure.

Adjunctive therapies in ARDS include a conservative fluid management strategy, as well as neuromuscular blockade and prone positioning in moderate-to-severe disease.

Supervised prone positioning while the infant is awake, avoiding excessive use of carriers, and upright positioning while awake are also recommended.

Conclusion: In acute lung injury, prone positioning induced more uniform distribution of gas and tissue along cephalocaudal axis by reducing cephalocaudal inflation gradient.

The improvement in oxygenation after the first prone positioning was a significant predictor of survival in patients with moderate-to-severe acute respiratory distress syndrome.

A total of 116 patients receiving prone positioning were included, of whom 45 (38.8%) were ICU survivors.

No major trial evaluating prone positioning for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) has incorporated a high-positive end-expiratory pressure (high-PEEP) strategy despite complementary physiological rationales.

The SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) pandemic has led to a surge in critical care capacity and prone positioning practices which may increase the risk of ocular complications.
