Popis: | Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) is associated with a severe acute respiratory condition requiring respiratory support and mechanical ventilation. Based on the pathophysiology and clinical course of the disease, a therapeutic approach can be adapted. Three phases have been identified, in which different strategies are recommended in a stepwise invasiveness approach. In the second or acute phase, patients are frequently admitted to the ICU for severe pneumonia and hypoxemia with evidence of a proinflammatory and hypercoagulable state. This stage is an opportunity to intervene early in the disease. Medical strategies and mechanical ventilation should be individualized to improve outcomes. |
