Thanks so much @avkwong and @Manu_Malbrain for their concise and powerful talks on the dangers of fluid overload (or better named fluid accumulation syndrome) - associated with death, affecting every organ system. #IFAD2021 #FOAMed #FOAMcc

@jasonvanschoor Dear Jason. Thank you for this excellent thread. We are preparing ourselves @UZBrussel I would like to add some treatment recommendations on #COVID19 #COVID19BE from #paolo_pelosi in the following tweets: @jasonvanschoor @UZBrussel 1/ Don’t use HFOV or NIV too much
2/ if saturation less than 95 or paO2/FiO2 less than 200 with/without RR higher than 25-30 breaths/min at FiO2 60% with CPAP by NIV (helmet preferred) after 15-30 min - intubate immediately
