The aim of this study is to determine the effects of four different body positions applied to paediatric intubated patients on physiological variables and perfusion index.The sample of this study, which was conducted as a quasi-experimental study in a single group in a paediatric intensive care unit, consisted of 44 intubated and monitored patients. The patients were given supine, right-lateral, left-lateral and Semi Fowler positions at intervals of two hours, and each position’s measurements were evaluated separately. In the analysis of data, number, percentage, mean, standard deviation, ANOVA, and post-hoc (Tukey HSD) tests were used. Fifty per cent of the patients were under 1 year old, 56.8% were male, and the mean patient age was 20.61±21.72 months. Peripheral oxygen saturation, systolic blood pressure and perfusion index mean values in the supine and Semi Fowler positions given to the patient were found to be statistically significant (p<0.05). It was determined that SPO2, systolic blood pressure and perfusion index values were higher in the semi-fawler position than in the other positions.
