Heat loss of newborns was 8.4 % higher in supine than in prone position (HL supine 1.80 vs HL prone 1.66 Watt/kg, p<0.01). This increased HL in supine position was mainly due to increased heat loss from the axillary sites, dependent on arm positioning, the R lower abdomen and the ...

Among 23 patients, the median R/I did not significantly change from supine (1.9 IQR 1.6–2.6) to prone position (1.7 IQR 1.3–2.8) (paired t test p = 0.051) but the individual changes correlated with the different response to PEEP. In supine and in prone position, R/I ...
