Caring for patients with respiratory infection induced acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a complex task. During the Covid-19 pandemic, patients with ARDS due to Covid-19 overwhelmed the hospitals and traditional care practices were not as effective leading to a high mortality rate. This caused many providers to seek out other less traditional treatments for these patients in order to save lives. Proper patient positioning, ventilation settings, and ventilation delivery changes were some of the areas explored. As the pandemic has resolved, retrospective studies have looked at the effectiveness of these changes with mixed results.
