Article Synopsis
- COVID-19 can lead to mild to severe respiratory issues, particularly through hypoxemic respiratory failure often linked to lung injury and an immune response known as a cytokine storm.
- Imaging typically shows ground-glass opacities in the lungs, with an increased incidence of complications like pneumothorax and pneumomediastinum during the second wave in India (2021) compared to the first wave in 2020.
- The presence of pneumomediastinum indicates a higher risk of death and longer ICU stays, and while managing these complications remains debated, both aggressive and conservative treatment approaches have been explored.
