TL;DR

Prone positioning in mechanically ventilated patients with acute lung injury, despite a small increase in IAP, does not negatively affect the hepatic capacity to eliminate ICG and gastric intramucosal energy balance when systemic blood flow and oxygenation are improved.

Abstract

Prone positioning in mechanically ventilated patients with acute lung injury, despite a small increase in IAP, does not negatively affect the hepatic capacity to eliminate ICG and gastric intramucosal energy balance when systemic blood flow and oxygenation are improved.
