Physiological Response to Prone Position in COVID-19 Associated Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS)

June 2, 2022 updated by: Piquilloud Imboden Lise, University of Lausanne Hospitals

Physiological Response to Prone Position in Intubated Adults With COVID-19 Associated Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS): a Retrospective Study

Retrospective study in COVID-19 ARDS patients hospitalised in the ICU. Investigators aim to explore the effects of prone positioning on oxygenation, dead space ventilation and mortality.
