P52 Figure 1ConclusionOur study suggests that aPP of the non-intubated self-ventilating patient produces short-term improvements in SaO2 and may delay the need for critical care or assisted ventilation None of those who were not for CPR survived to discharge after aPP, suggesting that the treating clinician should carefully consider whether aPP will be in the patient’s best interest Further work is needed to see whether earlier or prolonged prone positioning can reduce need for intubation and critical care
