ANALYSIS OF CLINICAL AND LABORATORY VARIABLES WITH PREDICTION CAPABILITY FOR INDICATION OF INVASIVE MECHANICAL VENTILATION IN PATIENTS WITH COVID-19 (COVID-19)

January 28, 2024 updated by: JOSE ROBERTO LAPA E SILVA, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro
This observational and retrospective study will follow the recommendations of the Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE). The aim is to verify and analyze the clinical and laboratory variables with prediction capability for indication of invasive ventilatory support in patients with COVID-19. The present study will be carried out in specific care units for patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19. Individuals with suspected or clinical diagnosis of COVID-19, with a minimum hospital stay of 24 hours and submitted to oxygen therapy or non-invasive ventilation will be selected. Clinical and laboratory variables will be collected from the moment of admission and every 12 hours until the third day of hospitalization. The primary outcome will be rate of endotracheal intubation, while secondary outocomes will be lenght of stay in intensive care unit, and hospital, as well as mortality rate.

Study Population

Patients with confirmation of covid-19 and with length of stay in the intensive care unit greater than 48 hours will be selected for the intubated and non-intubated groups. For the intubated group, patients who underwent endotracheal intubation after 48 hours of admission to the intensive care unit will be selected. For the non-intubated group, those patients who were not intubated during their stay in the intensive care unit will be selected.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • The inclusion criteria will be individuals with confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19 by RT-PCR (reverse- transcriptase polymerase chain reaction), with minimum length of stay of 24 hours in the ICU and, patients who sign the free and clarified consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • The exclusion criteria for participation in the study will be as follows: (1) patients under the age of 18; (2) patients with a negative laboratory test for COVID-19; (3) patients in need of emergency intubation; (4) patients who underwent previous endotracheal intubation at the same hospitalization.
