2/This is a nice follow up to the prior visual abstract we created on an earlier version of the study that you can see here
Interestingly, you can see that most of the "asymptomatic" individuals were actually "pre-symptomatic" as many of us suspected

We just published the largest, most detailed case series of mechanically ventilated #COVID19 patients with ARDS in a western country and with the longest follow-up.

Mortality of ICU mechanically ventilated patients with #COVID19 ARDS is as high as 23% at the 20 days follow-up.

Acute kidney injury (75%) and secondary bacteremia (37%) are the most frequent complications of #COVID19 ARDS.
Also, pneumothorax, pneumomediastinum, and thromboembolic complications were relatively common.

The medical community is divided when it comes to treating #COVID19. Various debates/theories dominate #MedTwitter & #FOAMed. Im glad to see these discussions & our progress, however patients sometimes get caught in the middle….

This thread’s intention is to simply share observations & the experience of a #COVID19 patient code named “Halo” (yes consent received by mother) whose story might seem unique but sadly a common occurrence throughout many NYC hospitals
@sinaiem @jacobi_EM @LincolnEM @NYEmergency
@sinaiem @jacobi_EM @LincolnEM @NYEmergency
Halo, A mid 30 year old w/#COVID19 symptoms (Febrile/SOB) for a week presented to the ED & had this CXR👇
As ED physicians, the difficult decision of disposition has never haunted us more these days when they’re like Halo: alert, talking & do not appear clinically ill

More of our #COVID19 experience here in #NYC:
Most if not all ICUs are full & the ED is quickly becoming an ICU. There's been a push away from early intubation for those that may not need it

As a result, theres a very large number of “Happy Hypoxic” patients who have been tolerating HFNC for hours & sometimes for days. SpO2 continues to remain unreliable (as do certain "traditional" exam findings of respiratory distress). PaO2s continue to correlate

The oxygen requirement these patients need is very high. Hospitals w/lower volumes of #COVID19 patients should start from now in securing the appropriate resources and have contingency plans to accommodate for this

From experience in our #COVID19 ICU so far:
What started as an HFNC ICU has quickly turned into an ARDS unit treating iatrogenic ALI from patients being intubated

As physicians we see a low SpO2 combined with a low PaO2 & the knee jerk reaction is early intubation instead of assessing patient's overall clinical picture including their work of breathing & mental status. Here's a walk through what happens after...
2/12 #COVIDfoam #Covid_19

Following intubation, patients are put on higher PEEPs which combined w/ACE-receptor effects of virus worsens their already slightly elevated creatinine. Higher PEEPs causing increased thoracic pressure understandably leads to hypotension so patients are then given fluids
