How to practice proning?

It is important to stay in well -ventilated room and go through proning when there is a mild breathing problem and oxygen level drops below 94 but not beyond 90-92.

Steps:

  1. Lie down on the bed facing down.
  2. Place one pillow below the neck and another one or two pillows under the chest through upper thigs and two pillows below the shins (Image 1)

Disclaimerr: Proning does not replace Covid medication nor an alternative for medication. This is a technique to helps patients to breath easily while maintain oxygen level at safe zone at home.
