Description
A large team in Vietnam trials awake prone positioning for COVID-19 in a 2024 paper. Lying face down can aid breathing in patients not on ventilators, but trials ran mostly during peak waves in unvaccinated groups. This open label trial added a dedicated support team and wearable monitors.
Ninety-three adults with moderate to severe disease on oxygen entered between March 2022 and March 2023; most had two or more vaccine doses. Half got standard care and half got coached prone sessions, with devices logging oxygen and body position around the clock. The main outcome was escalation of breathing support within twenty-eight days. The design also tracked how well patients tolerated the position in a lower middle income setting.
