Article Synopsis
- A study aimed to assess how the timing of intubation affects mortality rates in severely ill COVID-19 patients, given the ongoing uncertainty about the best intubation practices.
- The research was conducted at ten academic hospitals in the U.S. and Europe from early 2020 to late 2022, focusing on adults hospitalized specifically for COVID-19 who needed intubation.
- Results showed that patients intubated early (less severe symptoms) had a 32% lower risk of dying within 30 days compared to those intubated later (more severe symptoms), suggesting early intervention might be more beneficial.
