Investigating the Impact of Combined Inhaled Nitric Oxide and Prone Positioning on the Efficacy in ARDS Patients
Age 18-80 years;
Patients with moderate to severe ARDS on mechanical ventilation
Patients with severe asthma or acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), lung tumors, post-lung resection, and post-lung transplantation.
Patients with hemodynamic instability requiring vasopressor support: dopamine or dobutamine >15 µg/kg/min, norepinephrine >0.3 µg/kg/min.
Cardiogenic pulmonary edema.
Patients with severe facial deformities, facial trauma, or severe thoracoabdominal trauma that precludes prone positioning ventilation.
