Abstract

A study that aimed to analyze and compare hemodynamic parameters before and after changing position. This is an observational, analytical, cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach, carried out in an intensive care unit. After performing a sample calculation, 27 patients were included in the research who were under continuous hemodynamic monitoring of heart rate, respiratory rate, systolic, diastolic, and mean blood pressure, as well as peripheral oxygen saturation and axillary temperature. There were no statistically significant differences (p> 0.05) in hemodynamic parameters when comparing the pre- and post-change positions. It was concluded that the patients analyzed in the sample did not present hemodynamic repercussions after the change in decubitus, praising this as a safe technique from the hemodynamic point of view and beneficial for the treatment and prevention of health problems of critical patients.
