“…24 In the present study 2 pregnant patients with ARDS were given abdomen free prone position with improvement in SaO2 after 1 hour. 25 This improves oxygen saturation because there is no upward push to the diaphragm by encroaching abdominal organs and so the diaphragm is more free to move there by facilitating basal lung expansion. The improvement in SaO2 remains persistent even if the patient is turned from prone to supine position and is supported by various studies.…”

“…Para o prematuro sadio ou mesmo doente, a posição prona apresenta vários benefícios na função respiratória, promovendo aumento da oxigenação, decréscimo do CO 2 expirado, melhora da complacência e da função diafragmá-tica e diminuição da assincronia toracoabdominal [6][7][8][9] .…”

“…To make these transitions successful, infants should be able to maintain an optimal EELV and normal ventilation during nCPAP. Placing infants in prone position might facilitate this transition to nCPAP as this posture seems to increase EELV and improve respiratory mechanics (5)(6)(7)(8).…”
