Intrapulmonary shunting is a key contributor to hypoxia in COVID-19: An update on the pathophysiology

BACKGROUND: The pathophysiology of COVID-19 remains poorly understood. We aimed to estimate the contribution of intrapulmonary shunting and ventilation-to-perfusion (V(A)/Q) mismatch using a mathematical model to construct oxygen-haemoglobin dissociation curves (ODCs). METHODS: ODCs were constructed...
