Let’s start with a case – one
that unfortunately we have
seen way too frequently
over the past 1 year….
For healthcare professionals use only.
Mr. HN…….
•44 year old Malay man
•Hypertension on T. amlodipine
•Diagnose to have positive Covid-19 on screening.
•Presented with fever for 4/7, Shortness of breath on
exertion, poor oral intake.
•On referral to ICU, he was D9 of illness, tachypnea on
HFM 10L/min, RR 40-45 breath per minutes, SPO2 94
to 95%, T 39 degree celcius.
For
healthcare
professionals
use
only.
■ He was intubated and ventilated with BILEVEL ventilation, on
muscle relaxant infusion and sedation.
■ ABG post intubation: pH 7.28, pCO2 48, PO2 93, HCO3 22.6,
BE -4.5. on FiO2 1.0, PEEP 12. P peak 22, P plateau 16.
(PaO2/FiO2 ratio: 93)
■ He was prone subsequently for 16 hours, also started on IV
methylprednisolone 150mg dly, IV tazocin 4.5gm qid
■ His ventilation improved markedly after proning and we able to
cut down the FiO2 to 0.5.

healthcare
professionals

•CXR post intubation
showed bilateral middle
and lower zone opacity.
For
healthcare
professionals
use

■ He was supine after 16 hours of prone position.
■ Subsequently extubated after 5 days of mechanical
ventilation.
■ He was on IV methylprednisolone 150mg dly till extubation,
and the methylprednisone was wean off after extubation.
■ And discharge to Ward after 13 days stay in ICU , and
subsequently discharge home well after 21 days of
hospitalization.

Thrombosis
■ Bilaloglu et al
■ Out of 3334 hospitalized patient, 16% having thrombotic
event. ( 6.2% venous Vs 11.1% arterial).
■ Among 829 ICU patients, the rate was 29.4% ( 13.6%
venous vs 18.6% Arterial).
The occurrence of thrombosis is independent risk factor for
mortality.

Criteria for ICU Referral
■ Facemask 5L/min.
■ Haemodynamic instability.
■ When the patient require close monitoring on fluids and vital
signs.
■ Prognosis, potential benefit from interventions
■ Bed availability

healthcare
professionals

Intubation Criteria
1. SPO2<90% on HFM
2. Respiratory muscle fatigue (increase CO2,
tachycardia, sweating, and patient subjective feeling)
Intubation has to be timely, but not
premature…
For
healthcare
professionals
use
only.
Revised Intubation Criteria
• Rate of deterioration
• Anticipated trajectory: excessive work of breathing,
worsening fatigue.
• Altered mental state and agitation.
• Anticipated difficulty in intubation.

ARDS secondary to COVID-19.

Ferrando et al…
■ Average PF ratio on intubation: 120
■ Compliance 35mls/cmH20
■ Plateau pressure 25cmH2O
■ PEEP 12
■ Duration of ventilation: prolonged ( 4 ventilator free day at D30)
■ Mortality at 28 days: 32%
■ Thus with severe ARDS: 39%

Neuromuscular Blockade
WHO 2021: In patient with moderate-severe ARDS ( PF ratio <150),
Neuromuscular blockade by continuous infusion should not be
routinely used.
May be consider in patients with ARDS eg: Ventilatory
dyssynchrony despite sedation, refractory
hypoxaemia/hypercapnia.
For
healthcare
professionals
use
only.
Extracorporeal Membrane
Oxygenation ( ECMO)
WHO 2021: Its use be “considered” in centres with
appropriate expertise.
The utility of ECMO for COVID19 is uncertain and there are concerns
about the resource implications of ECMO in the context of a global
pandemic
Consider when PF ratio <50mmHg for 3 hours, a PF ratio < 80mmHg
for 6 hours despite lung protective ventilation.

Conditional recommendation:
We suggest Awake prone positioning of
severely ill patients hospitalized with
COVID-19 requiring supplemental oxygen.

High-flow Nasal Cannula (HFNC)
NHF use results in
1. Reduced mortality both in the ICU and up to 90
days.
2. Lower 28 days intubation rate ( PF ratio <
200mmHg)
3. An increased in degree of comfort, reduction in
severity of dyspnea, and decreased RR

High-flow Nasal Oxygen (HFNO)
N=62, 63% required intubation, 34% succeeded on HFNO,
3% died on HFNO after a decision not to intubate.

Non Invasive Ventilation
■ NIV is not proven for Hypoxaemic Failure, in certain
patient eg Acute Exacerbation of obstructive lung disease,
cardiogenic pulmonary oedema or obstructive sleep
apnea, it may be useful
■ In situation where mechanical ventilation is not available,
bubble CPAP may be useful.

Other Supportive Management
•Fluids Management
•Analgesia and Sedation
•Thromboprophylaxis

Fluids Management
•Use a conservative fluid management strategy
•Avoid positive fluid balance/ hypervolaemia
For

• COVID-19 patients may be at greater risk of
venous-thromboembolism (VTE), DIC, and clotting of
extracorporeal circuits (e.g. CRRT).
• 184 ICU patients with COVID pneumonia, 57%
developed symptomatic venous thromboembolism
despite prophylactic anticoagulation.
Klok,F. et al,2020
Thromboprophylaxis
For
healthcare
professionals
use

• Due to the high incidence of thromboembolic events, some groups
suggest the use of therapeutic doses of heparin/low molecular
weight heparin
Lin, L et al.2020
• prospective evidence is lacking and caution is essential given the
risk of bleeding complications.

ratio for intubation and death in the treatment group was
0.83 ( CI 0.38-1.81)
■ There was increase in the percentage of patient with
worsening of disease at 14 days.
