摘要

BACKGROUND Since the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)in Wuhan,China in December 2019,the overall fatality rate of severe and critical patients with COVID-19 is high and the effective therapy is limited.CASE SUMMARY In this case report,we describe a case of the successful combination of the prone position(PP)and high-flow nasal oxygen(HFNO)therapy in a spontaneously breathing,severe COVID-19 patient who presented with fever,fatigue and hypoxemia and was diagnosed by positive throat swab COVID-19 RNA testing.The therapy significantly improved the patient''s clinical symptoms,oxygenation status,and radiological characteristics of lung injury during hospitalization,and the patient showed good tolerance and avoided intubation.Additionally,we did not find that medical staff wearing optimal airborne personal protective equipment(PPE)were infected by the new coronavirus in our institution.CONCLUSION We conclude that the combination of PP and HFNO could benefit spontaneously breathing,severe COVID-19 patients.The therapy does not increase risk of healthcare workers wearing optimal airborne PPE to become infected with virus particles.
