To analyze the efficacy of early prone position ventilation in the treatment of severe hypoxemia after surgery for acute type A aortic dissection (TAAD). The patients were divided into a control group and a treatment group. Parameters assessed included blood gas analysis indicators [arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2). ① Blood gas analysis: Before treatment, there was no significant difference in PaO2, SpO2, and OI levels between the two groups; after treatment, the PaO2, SpO2, and OI levels in both groups significantly increased compared to pre-treatment, with a more pronounced improvement in the treatment group than in the control group (P < 0.05). ② Hemodynamics: Before treatment, there was no significant difference in MAP and HR levels between the two groups; after treatment, the MAP levels increased significantly in both groups compared to pre-treatment, while HR levels decreased significantly, with no significant difference between the groups. ③ Prognosis recovery: MV time, ICU stay, and total hospital stay were significantly lower in the treatment group than in the control group; the 30-day mortality rate was 14.58% in the control group and 12.50% in the treatment group, with no significant difference in 30-day mortality rate between the groups. Early prone position ventilation has shown promising application in the treatment of severe hypoxemia after TAAD surgery. Compared to traditional supine position ventilation, the use of early prone position ventilation can further improve blood gas analysis indicators in patients, and shorten MV time, ICU stay, and total hospital stay, thereby accelerating patient recovery.
