I’m not an MD but I’m a licensed medical professional. The idea behind proning is that by laying on your stomach, you allow for more lung surface area to participate in gas exchange due to our anatomy. More gas exchange = better oxygenation. And a patient is supposed to alternate between prone and supine, I believe every 4 hours. It’s a coordinated effort with the staff.
