“…Our results do not support the information in the literature. Patil and Nagarwala 16 found that oxygen saturation improved in the lateral down position when compared with the supine position, but this improvement was not significant. Yeaw, in patients with unilateral lung disease, positioned the healthy lung in the lateral down position, and the diseased lung in the lateral down position and in the semi‐Fowler's position; it was concluded that there was no statistically significant relationship between oxygenation levels and the position 14 .…”

“…Shah et al 4 conducted a study with 30 mechanically ventilated ARDS patients to compare lying on the side vs semi‐Fowler's position; they stated that semi‐Fowler's positioning was better at improving oxygenation. Another author reported that oxygen saturation improved in the prone position compared with the supine position 16 ; the results of these studies are different and contradictory. There are few studies on the effect of body positions on oxygenation in patients with both unilateral and bilateral lung disease.…”
