The goal of this study is to understand if there is any improvement on oxygenation of patients diagnosed with Covid-19 ARDS patients when we extend the duration of prone positioning. Second outcome of the study is to investigate mortality of patients when we extend the duration of prone positioning.

Oxygen Saturation Index (OSI)
OSI is calculated by dividing the product of mean airway pressure (MAP) and FiO2 with SpO2
Time frame: 48 hours
Oxygenation Index
Oxygenation index is calculated as OI = MAP × Fio2 × 100 / Pao2, where MAP indicates mean airway pressure and Fio2 indicates fraction of inspired oxygen
Time frame: 48 hours
ICU mortality
mortality rates during patients admission in the ICU
Time frame: 28 days
