83
Q

What is the difference between supine vs prone vs semi-reclined positions?

A

supine position is lying on your back and puts pressure on your lungs to breathe because it is working against gravity; prone position is lying on your stomach which puts less pressure on your lungs to breathe; semi-reclined position is lying upright and helps maintain blood pressure and relies pressure on the lower back.
