Prone Positionning in Non Intubated ICU Patients With SARS-COV2

Retrospective single center study on the effect of awake prone positioning in ICU patients with severe hypoxemia related to SARS-COV2

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Retrospective, observational study on the effects of awake prone positioning on oxygenation, invasive mechanical ventilation requirement and mortality in non intubation patients with severe hypoxemia related to SARS-COV2 and regardeless of the oxygen supplementation method.
