Side-lying Positioning

Side-Lying Positioning is a biomechanical intervention strategy in patient care that involves the deliberate placement of an individual in a lateral decubitus posture to optimize physiological stability, prevent pressure-related injury, and facilitate clinical access, distinguished from other positioning techniques by its emphasis on unilateral body support and gravitational alignment of torso segments.
