Sumario: | PURPOSE: To identify determinants of oxygenation over time in patients with COVID-19 acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS); and to analyze their characteristics according to Berlin definition categories. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Prospective cohort study including consecutive mechanically ventilated patients admitted between 3/20/2020–10/31/2020 with ARDS. Epidemiological and clinical data on admission; outcomes; ventilation, respiratory mechanics and oxygenation variables were registered on days 1, 3 and 7 for the entire population and for ARDS categories. RESULTS: 1525 patients aged 61 ± 13, 69% male, met ARDS criteria; most frequent comorbidities were obesity, hypertension, diabetes and respiratory disease. On admission, 331(21%), 849(56%) and 345(23%) patients had mild, moderate and severe ARDS; all received lung-protective ventilation (mean tidal volumes between 6.3 and 6.7 mL/kg PBW) and intermediate PEEP levels (10–11 cmH(2)O). PaO(2)/FiO(2), plateau pressure, static compliance, driving pressure, ventilation ratio, pH and D-dimer >2 mg/L remained significantly different among the ARDS categories over time. In-hospital mortality was, respectively, 55%, 58% and 70% (p < 0.000). Independent predictors of changes of PaO(2)/FiO(2) over time were BMI; preexistent respiratory disease; D-dimer >2 mg/L; day 1-PEEP, and day 1-ventilatory ratio. CONCLUSION: Hypoxemia in patients with COVID-19-related ARDS is associated with comorbidities, deadspace and activated coagulation markers, and disease severity—reflected by the PEEP level required. |
