Abstract:
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a common critical disease in department of pediatrics.Mechanical ventilation is one of the effective means for the treatment of ARDS.In the past,in order to comfort and care for patients,the supine or semi supine position were used often.Recently,many studies have showed that prone position could change the respiratory mechanics and reduce intrathoracic pressure,avoiding lung injury caused by over stretch and hyperinflation,which is significant in improving ARDS gas exchange.
