The pronation position is given to premature babies when the premature baby's oxygen saturation is 90 percent with a pronation position intervention duration of 30 minutes to 3 hours. Analyzing the effect of the pronation position on the oxygenation status of premature babies using mechanical ventilation in the NICU Room at Sukabumi Hospital. Research Method: The research design used by researchers is Quasy experimental with a one-group pre-post test design approach. Data analysis in this study was a paired categorical bivariate comparative analysis which aimed to determine the effect of pronation position on the oxygenation status of premature babies using mechanical ventilation as measured using a questionnaire before being given the intervention (pretest) and after being given the intervention (posttest). Results: Most of the respondents, namely 40 babies or 95.2%, had oxygen saturation <95% before being given the pronation position. Most of the respondents, namely 36 babies or 86%, had oxygen saturation ≥95% after being given the pronation position. Conclusion: There is an influence of the pronation position on the oxygenation status of premature babies using mechanical ventilation in the NICU Room at a hospital in Sukabumi. The paired t-test p-value was obtained at 0.003 or smaller than the alpha value of 0.05.
