NCT04904731

Brief Summary

The present investigation aims to assess the diaphragmatic thickening fraction, reflecting the diaphragmatic activity, during supine (baseline) and at 1 hour following prone position in patients assisted through non invasive ventilation due to hypoxemic acute respiratory failure related to COVID-19. Also, the impact of lung aeration and comfort were ascertained in the same setting

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Diaphragmatic thickening fraction

    The fraction of diaphragmatic thickness variations during respiratory cycle

    At baseline, in supine position

  • Diaphragmatic thickening fraction

    The fraction of diaphragmatic thickness variations during respiratory cycle

    After 1 hour following prone position application

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Lung aeration

    At baseline, in supine position

  • Peripheral oxygen saturation

    At baseline, in supine position

  • Lung aeration

    after 1 hour following prone position application

  • Peripheral oxygen saturation

    after 1 hour following prone position application

Interventions

Patients were assisted in NIV in supine position that was switched in prone position for clinical purpouse
