Abstract

COVID-19 is highly contagious and has high mortality and morbidity. One of the aerosol generating procedure during management of SARS-CoV-2 patients is cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). During CPR, it is essential to provide return of spontanous circulation without compromising the safety of healthcare workers and chest compressions are provided in supine position traditionally. Prone position is used during surgery for easy access and in ARDS patients for better oxygenation. Despite increasing usage of it, healthcare workers may not have enough information about prone CPR.

Özet

COVID-19 oldukça bulaşıcı ve yüksek mortalite ve morbiditeye sahip bir hastalıktır. SARS-CoV-2 sürecindeki hastaların bakımları sırasında aerosol salınımına neden olan prosedürlerden biri kardiyopulmoner resüsitasyondur (KPR). Bu işlem sırasında sağlık çalışanlarının güvenliğine riske atmadan spontan dolaşımın geri dönüşünün sağlanması esastır ve göğüs kompresyonları geleneksel olarak supin pozisyonda uygulanmaktadır. Prone pozisyon, cerrahi sırasında kolay erişim için ve ARDS hastalarında daha iyi oksijenizasyon için kullanılmaktadır. Bu pozisyonun artan kullanımına rağmen, prone KPR konusunda sağlık çalışanları yeterli bilgiye sahip olmayabilir.
