Abstract
Fig. 1 PaO 2 /FiO 2 and PaO 2 improved in left lateral, right lateral, and prone position compared with supine position ( + P < 0.05 vs supine 0.5 h, * P < 0.05 vs supine 2.5 h, # P < 0.05 vs supine 4.5), and the improvement degree of PaO 2 /FiO 2 and PaO 2 in left and right lateral position was less than that of prone position ( & P < 0.05 vs supine prone 5 h, x P < 0.05 vs supine prone 6h)
