Early Awake Prone and Lateral Position in Non-intubated Severe and Critical Patients with COVID-19 in Wuhan: A Respective Cohort Study	2020-05-13		.txt	text/plain	3459	226	55	Background Previous studies suggest applying prone position (PP) and lateral position (LP) in patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) for their efficacy in improving oxygenation and lung recruitment.This paper aims to share clinical experiences and outcome of using PP and LP in combination with oxygen therapy (OT) and Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) in severe and critical patients with COVID-19. Conclusion: Clinical outcomes of early application of PP and LP in combination with OT and NIV in severe and critical patients with COVID-19 indicated well tolerance of the therapy and resulted in improving patients' oxygenation in a safe and effective manner. Based on previous clinical experiences in managing patients with severe acute respiratory infection, we used early prone position (PP) and lateral position (LP) in combination with oxygen therapy (OT) and non-invasive ventilation (NIV), as supportive therapies, to treat severe and critical patients with COVID-19.	./cache/cord-312926-j9jybblr.txt	./txt/cord-312926-j9jybblr.txt
