Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, Dr. Forrest Orm discusses the use of awake proning with high-flow nasal cannula in treating COVID-19 ARDS. He presents two cases from his hospital and highlights the importance of avoiding early intubation and utilizing self-proning and high-flow nasal cannula instead. Dr. Orm explains the physiological benefits of prone positioning and discusses the differences between traditional ARDS and COVID-19 pneumonia. He shares research studies that suggest high-flow nasal cannula and prone positioning can help avoid intubation and improve outcomes. Dr. Orm concludes by emphasizing the need for flexibility and staying updated on the latest data.
