Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
There will be significant change in heart rate respiratory rate and oxygen saturation level in pre and post position change among infants The Respiratory Rate of infants receiving prone position will be less than supine position The heart rate of infants receiving prone position will be less than supine position Tthe oxygen saturation level of infants receiving prone position will be more than supine position as evident from pulse oxymeterTimepoint: cardio-outcomes of infants with respiratory distress will improve.downes score will improve.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
downes score will also improve after prone position.Timepoint: after 2 hours of prone position downes score will improve.
