DOI: 10.1007/s00134-020-06281-2
Abstract: To investigate whether COVID-19-ARDS differs from all-cause ARDS. Thirty-two consecutive, mechanically ventilated COVID-19-ARDS patients were compared to two historical ARDS sub-populations 1:1 matched for PaO2/FiO2 or for compliance of the respiratory system. Gas exchange, hemodynamics… read more here.
