Prone positioning in Covid-19 patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome and invasive mechanical ventilation
CONCLUSIONS: There is a high incidence of adverse events due to PD, with the physiological type being the most frequent. The identification of the main risk factors for the development of prone-related pressure ulcers will help to prevent the occurrence of these lesions during the prone positioning. Prone positioning offered an improvement in the oxygenation in these patients.PMID:36311904 | PMC:PMC9595372 | DOI:10.1016/j.enfi.2022.09.002 (Source: Enfermeria Intensiva)
