Use of Prone Position Ventilation in Danish Patients With COVID-19 Induced Severe ARDS Treated With VV-ECMO
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Prone position ventilation was used 220 times in 44 out of 68 patients with severe COVID-19 induced ARDS treated with VV-ECMO. PPV treated patients did not benefit from PPV and the incidence of PPV related adverse events was high

Detailed Description
Purpose: To describe the use and effects of prone position ventilation (PPV) in patients with COVID-19 induced Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), treated with Veno-Venous Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO).
Methods: Nationwide retrospective analysis of all COVID-19 patients in Denmark from March 2020 - December 2021with severe ARDS and need of VV-ECMO treatment. Data on the number of patients treated with PPV, number of PPV-events, timing, the time spent in prone position, physiological response types, adverse events and outcomes are reported.
