OBJECTIVE Both prone position and high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) have the potential to facilitate lung recruitment, and their combined use could thus be synergetic on gas exchange. Keeping the lung open could also potentially be lung protective. The aim of this study was to compare physiologic and proinflammatory effects of HFOV, prone positioning, or their combination in severe ...

Objective: To compare the efficacy and safety of left lateral decubitus versus prone position during endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreaticography (ERCP).
 Methods: This prospective single-centre cohort study was carried out at Pak Emirates Military Hospital from January to June 2021. Patients requiring ERCP were subsequently allotted LL or PP group randomly (unequal randomization) exc...

PURPOSE To test a prone position against the international-standard supine position in women undergoing whole-breast-radiotherapy (WBRT) after wide-local-excision (WLE) of early breast cancer (BC) in terms of feasibility, set-up errors, and respiratory motion. METHODS Following WLE of BC with insertion of tumour-bed clips, patients underwent 4D-CT for WBRT-planning in supine and prone positio...

AIMS To investigate and compare heart rate variability (HRV) and responses of heart rate and arousal to head-up tilting in infants sleeping prone and supine. METHODS Thirty seven healthy infants aged 2-4 months were studied. HRV was measured for 500 beats while they were in a horizontal position. Subjects were then tilted 60 degrees head-up, and heart rate recorded over 1 minute and arousal r...

Prone position and recruitment maneuvers (RM) are proposed as adjuncts to mechanical ventilation to open up the lung and keep it open. We studied the oxygenation response to a RM (composed of a 30-s sustained inflation at 60 cm H(2)O airway pressure) performed in prone and supine positions in dogs after oleic acid- induced lung injury using an inspired O(2) fraction of 0.60. In one group (n = 6...

This study was designed to examine whether the oxygenation response in the prone position differs in magnitude depending on the level of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) applied in the supine position, and whether cardiac output (CO) increases in the prone position. In seven supine dogs, acute lung injury was established by saline lavage (arterial oxygen tension (Pa,O2)/inspiratory oxyge...
