1 Study of the Feasibility and Usefulness of the Prone Position in Patients With Respiratory Distress From Covid-19 Not Intubated, in Spontaneous Breath in Oxygen Therapy or Cpap

The prone position during mechanical ventilation in patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is able to improve oxygenation and thus reduce mortality. The objective of the study is to evaluate the ability of the prone position to increase the oxygenation of the patient with SARS-cov-2 pneumonia.

NCT04365959 Sars-CoV2 Procedure: Prone position

Primary Outcomes

Description: Measure the ability of the prone position to increase the oxygenation of the patient with SARS-cov-2 pneumonia as a lung recruitment index.

Measure: Number of patients in whom the prone position caused an increase in oxygenation

Time: Until patient discharge from the hospital (approximately 1 month after enrollment)

Secondary Outcomes

Description: Measure the feasibility of the prone position in terms of patient comfort and health resources in a context of a national health emergency.

Measure: The feasibility of prone position

Time: Until patient discharge from the hospital (approximately 1 month after enrollment)

2 Effectiveness of Prone Positioning Combined With High-flow Nasal Cannula for Patients With COVID-19 Induced ARDS

Prone position (PP) has been proved to be effective in severe ARDS patients. On the other hand, High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) may prevent intubation in hypoxemic Acute respiratory failure (ARF) patients. Our hypothesis is that the combination of PP and HFNC in patients with COVID19 induced ARDS may decrease the need of mechanical ventilation. Primary outcome: Therapeutic failure within 28 days of randomization (death or intubation). Secondary outcomes: to analyze PP feasibility and safety in HFNC patients and to analyze effectiveness in terms of oxygenation. Methods: multicentric randomized study including patients with COVID19 induced ARDS supported with HFNC. Experimental group will received HFNC and PP whereas observation group will received standard care. Optimization of non-invasive respiratory management of COVID19 induced ARDS patients may decrease the need of invasive mechanical ventilation and subsequently ICU and hospital length of stay.

NCT04391140 COVID ARDS Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Acute Respiratory Failure Corona Virus Infection Other: Prone position
MeSH:Coronavirus Infections Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Respiratory Distress Syndrome, Newborn Respiratory Distress Syndrome, Adult Respiratory Insufficiency Acute Lung Injury

Primary Outcomes

Description: Therapeutic failure: death or intubation

Measure: Therapeutic failure death or intubation

Time: 28 days within randomization

Secondary Outcomes

Description: Comfort measurement using a visual-analog scale. Presence of complications related with prone position and the use of high-flow nasal cannula: Skin ulcers. Intravascular lines displacement HFNC related events (hot air feeling, nasal lesions)

Measure: Feasibility and safety of prone position in HFNC patients

Time: 28 days within randomization

Description: Evolution of the oxygenation (SpO2/FiO2) in prone position. Efficacy Length of HFNC therapy Length of ICU stay Length of mechanical ventilation (in those who require intubation) ICU and hospital mortality

Measure: Efficacy of prone position in HFNC patients

Time: 28 days within randomization

3 Awake Prone Positioning and Oxygen Therapy in Patients With COVID-19 (APRONOX)

The prone position strategy for patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is simple and cost-effective from the first description on its use in patients with acute respiratory failure to improve hypoxemia. Different studies have investigated its safety and efficacy in various clinical settings, demonstrating that its early use in combination with non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIV) or high-flow oxygen therapy can reduce intubation rate and mortality in ARDS. In the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, high-value medicine and resource optimization are critical.

NCT04407468 COVID ARDS Pneumonia Procedure: Prone position
MeSH:Pneumonia
HPO:Pneumonia

Primary Outcomes

Description: Relationship between awake prone position and the tracheal intubation

Measure: To analyze the relationship between the prone position and the need for orotracheal intubation.

Time: 3 months

Secondary Outcomes

Description: See the relationship between the awake prone position and the SaO2/FiO2 INDEX

Measure: The impact of the prone position on the partial oxygen saturation / inspired oxygen fraction index (SaO2 / FiO2).

Time: 3 months

Other Outcomes

Description: Determine the free hours without the need for orotracheal intubation of patients in the prone position.

Measure: Determine the free hours without the need for orotracheal intubation of patients in the prone position.

Time: 3 months
