ecj-7524	Bellone, Andrea; Basile, Adriano	Prone positioning in severe acute hypoxemic respiratory failure in the emergency ward	2018	2	.pdf	application/pdf	1227	70	53	Prone position also improves resting lung volumes in dorso-caudal regions by reducing the superimposed pressures of both heart and abdominal organs.1-3 The final result of prone positioning in most subjects with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure due to severe pulmonary consolidation is to exhibit mild to dramatic improve- ments in oxygenation. This case highlights the usefulness of prone positioning as a complementary treatment of acute hypoxemic respiratory failure due to pneumonia in addition to HFNC and BiPAP in an Emergency Medicine Ward.	cache/ecj-7524.pdf	txt/ecj-7524.txt
