• Determining the best duration for patients with ARDS in the prone position

  This study is testing how long patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome should stay in a face-down position to see if it helps their breathing and reduces inflammation.

  Recruiting National Taiwan University Hospital · Taipei · NCT06827184

• Comparing robot-assisted kidney surgery in different positions

  This study is testing if having kidney surgery with a robot while lying face down is better for recovery and results compared to the usual side position for patients with kidney tumors.

• Using inflatable air bags to improve lung function in ARDS patients in prone position

  This study tests if using inflatable air bags can help improve lung function in patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) who are lying on their stomachs.

  Recruiting Phase 2 Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens · Amiens · NCT05515484

• HOFA vs hydrocolloid dressings to prevent pressure ulcers in patients in the prone position

  This trial tests whether hyperoxygenated fatty acids (HOFA) can better prevent pressure ulcers than hydrocolloid dressings in critically ill patients who are kept in a prone position.

  Recruiting Puerta de Hierro University Hospital · Majadahonda, Madrid · NCT05198167

• Assessing the safety and feasibility of upright positioning for patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome.

  This study is testing if sitting patients up at an angle can help those with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome breathe better and avoid complications compared to lying flat.
