Monitoring response to prone positioning.

Curr Opin Crit Care

January 2025

Fondazione IRCCS Ca' Granda Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico, Milan, University of Milan, Milan, Italy.

Purpose Of Review: The increasing use of prone position, in intubated patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome as well as in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure receiving noninvasive respiratory support, mandates a better definition and monitoring of the response to the manoeuvre. This review will first discuss the definition of the response to prone positioning, which is still largely based on its effect on oxygenation. We will then address monitoring respiratory and hemodynamic responses to prone positioning in intubated patients.

Prone positioning is a therapeutic strategy for severe Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). In COVID-19-associated ARDS (CARDS), the application of prone position has shown varying responses, influenced by factors such as lung recruitability and SARS-CoV-2-induced pulmonary endothelial dysfunction. This study aimed to compare the early impact of pronation on lung ventilation-perfusion matching (VQmatch) in CARDS and non-COVID-19 ARDS patients (non-CARDS).

Australian and New Zealand Intensive Care - Research Centre, School of Public Health and Preventive Medicine, Monash University, Melbourne Australia.

Objective: To describe the use of and outcomes from awake prone positioning (APP) in nonintubated patients with COVID-19 in Australian intensive care units (ICUs) in comparison to those who did not receive APP, and to explore the temporal relationship between publication of APP research and changes in clinical practice.

Design: Multicentre, observational cohort study.

Setting: Seventy-eight Australian ICUs participating in SPRINT-SARI Australia.

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is defined as an acute inflammatory syndrome leading to increased pulmonary capillary leakage and subsequent interstitial and alveolar pulmonary edema. Hypoxia is the predominant symptom. The definition of ARDS comprises acute onset, bilateral patchy infiltration on chest X‑ray and a reduction of the ratio of arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO) to the fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO), which also determines the classification into mild (≤ 300), moderate (≤ 200) and severe (≤ 100) ARDS.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for Chinese neonates with severe respiratory and cardiac failure.

January 2025

Department of PICU of Pediatric Medicine, Seventh Medical Center, PLA General Hospital, Beijing, 100000, China.

Objective: We aimed to outline the experience with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for respiratory and cardiac failure in neonates in our institution and compare our results with those from other countries.

Method: The clinical data of 28 neonates who required ECMO assistance were studied retrospectively.

Results: A total of 28 neonates underwent support with veno-arterial ECMO, including 14 cardiac support and 14 respiratory support.
