Effect of head-end of bed elevation on respiratory mechanics in mechanically ventilated patients with moderate-to-severe COVID-19 ARDS – A cohort study

BACKGROUND: Head-end elevation (HEE) is known to improve oxygenation and respiratory mechanics. In ARDS, poor lung compliance limits positive pressure ventilation causing delivery of inadequate minute ventilation (MVe). We observed that, in moderate-to-severe COVID-19 ARDS, the respiratory system co...
