Observational study of the use of recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator in COVID-19 shows a decrease in physiological dead space

#COVID19-induced ARDS is partly explained by the presence of microthrombi, motivating the use of thrombolytics. This study shows that thrombolytics decrease dead space ventilation in COVID-19 ARDS patients. https://bit.ly/2GdM44a
