Summary

Second analysis of data prospectively collected during an investigation assessing the clinical characteristics of patients admitted for hypoxemic acute respiratory failure (hARF) related to novel coronavirus 19 disease (COVID-19). In particular, the primary aim of the present analysis is to assess the effects of recruiting maneuver and prone positioning on lung aeration evaluated through lung ultrasound in patients undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation

Conditions

• Acute Respiratory Failure

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	lung ultrasound assessment	In patients undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation with an arterial oxygen tension on inspired oxygen fraction ratio \< 200 mmHg requiring recruitment maneuver and prone positioning as a rescue therapy, lung aeration will be evaluated at: 1. baseline, in supine position under protective ventilation 2. after two minute of recruitment maneuver in pressure controlled ventilation 3. at 1 hour following prone positioning application
