Open abdomen/recent abdominal surgeryThe prone position has considerable physiological justification in patients with cardiopulmonary compromise. The beneficial effects of prone position on arterial oxygenation may reflect improved lung compliance, tidal ventilation, diaphragmatic excursion and FRC, and reduced air way closure. A variant of prone position, prone abdomen free, has shown additional benefit over prone abdomen restricted. In the prone abdomen free position, the patient is positioned such that the movement of abdomen is unencumbered by the bed. This can be achieved either by raising the patient body in relation to the bed so that abdomen falls free, or using the bed by a hole cut out at the level of abdomen. Despite compelling evidence to support the prone position, this position may be poorly tolerated in some patients, or may be contraindicated in the haemodynamically unstable patients. In these situations, intermediate positions approximating prone may produce many of the beneficial effects and minimize any potential hazard.
Although the negative effects of supine position have been well documented for several decades, supine and recumbent positions are frequently assumed by the patients in hospitals. These positions are associated with significant reduction in lung volumes and flow rates, and increased work of breathing. This decrease in functional residual capacity contributes to the closure of dependent air ways and reduced oxygenation. This effect is accentuated in older patients and patients with cardiopulmonary disease. The haemodynamic consequences of the supine position are also very remarkable. The gravity dependent increase in central blood volume may precipitate vascular congestion, reduced compliance and pulmonary oedema, and the commensurate increase in stroke volume increases the work of heart. Within 6 hours a compensatory diuresis can lead to a loss of circulating blood volume and orthostatic intolerance, i.e. haemodynamic intolerance to upright position. Bed rest deconditioning has been attributed to this reduction of blood volume and the impairment of volume regulating mechanism rather than physiological conditioning per se.
