Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Pronation seems feasible and effective in improving blood oxygenation in patients with COVID-19 pneumonia. Data are lacking on the effects of pronation on clinical outcome in this subset of patients.
