About this study

Prone positioning has shown beneficial effects in intubated patients with severe respiratory failure and positive effects in awake patients with COVID-19 pneumonia. Conclusive evidence for patients with AHRF without COVID-19 is still missing. The investigators hypothesis that awake prone position in patients with AHRF is superior to standard supine/semi-recumbent position in terms of reducing the rate of tracheal intubation and/or all-cause death within 28 days after randomization.
