Aim: The present study aimed to examine the effect of 60° HOBE on preventing VAP and respiratory parameters in mechanically ventilated patients. Despite numerous studies on the beneficial effects of different HOBE, there is little scientific evidence examining the effect of a 60° HOBE position. Introduction: Head-of-Bed Elevation (HOBE) is now considered as a main modifiable factor for decreasing Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP) especially in the area of intensive care nursing.
