This review aims to describe the repercussions of prone positioning on lung aeration of adults with COVID-19 under invasive mechanical ventilation. Two independent reviewers selected studies in databases LILACS, PubMED, MEDLINE e SciELO. We included studies assessing the repercussions of prone positioning in lung aeration and oxygenation – PaO2 and FiO2/ratio. In addition to identifying the implications of studies on days of invasive mechanical ventilation and mortality. 150 articles were identified and six made up the sample. A total of 70 patients were evaluated using lung ultrasound, electrical impedance tomography and chest computed tomography before, during and/or after prone position. Despite the heterogeneity of the sample and the protocols used, lung aeration increased in some lung regions after the prone positioning.
