Article Synopsis
- Early application of prone positioning in ARDS patients improves survival rates, but pressure sores remain a common complication, although the incidence decreases with increased center expertise.
- The study examined 170 patients in a retrospective observational design, finding a 14% occurrence of pressure sores and a low overall complication rate during prone positioning sessions.
- The research suggests that using a dedicated protocol and involving trained professionals can help minimize complications associated with prone positioning in ARDS treatment.
