Awake prone positioning in covid-19 related hypoxemic respiratory failure: Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of randomized trials

Review question / Objective: Verify whether a single RCT had a large effect on the scientific weight surrounding awake prone position use. Eligibility criteria: To be eligible for inclusion, studies have to use a randomized controlled trial design, including hospitalized patients with hypoxemic respiratory failure due to Covid-19; compare awake prone positioning with usual care (no prone positioning); and report on endotracheal intubation. Information sources: In MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, CENTRAL, and Science Citation Index; contact with authors; references of published studies.
