Prone Positioning May Not Benefit Patients With ARDS Weaning Off ECMO, Study Finds

MedPage Today (12/1, Short) reported, “Early application of prone positioning did not help patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome – mostly from COVID – get off venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation any faster compared to supine positioning, a randomized trial found.” The findings were published in JAMA. Healio (12/1, Hornick) also covered the story.
