Twenty consecutive patients with ARDS were included and turned prone in the medical intensive care unit of Sainte Marguerite University Hospital in Marseille, France. Patients were prospectively included in this study after obtaining written informed consent from the next of kin. The study design was approved by the Comité Consultatif de Protection des Personnes dans la Recherche Biomédicale of Marseille. ARDS was defined in accordance with the recommendations of the American/European Consensus Conference.
Patients with unstable cardiovascular function, cerebral injury or unstable spinal fractures, patients subjected to major abdominal surgery and patients with a history of neuromuscular disease were excluded.
