Kaplan–Meier survival estimates during the 50 days following enrollment of the Covid-19 patients in the prone position (P.P., n = 17) or supine position (S.P., n = 23). Compared with the S.P. group, the P.P. therapy significantly improved the detailing overall survival rates in Kaplan–Meier survival curve (HR = 0.37(0.18–0.76), P = 0.007).
