The document summarizes information and recommendations regarding the Covid-19 pandemic from the perspective of intensive care and critical care specialists. It provides worldwide case statistics and outlines anticipated critical care bed needs for a hospital. It also discusses ventilation strategies, the use of ECMO, guidelines from medical societies, PPE recommendations, management of shock, antibiotics, experimental drug treatments and ongoing clinical trials. The overall focus is on evaluating and treating critically ill Covid-19 patients from an intensive care perspective.

Reasons include: Volumes wouldgo to the most compliant lung segments. • PEEP would be impossible to manage. • measuring pulmonary mechanics would be challenging, if not impossible. • Alarm monitoring and management would not be feasible. • Individualized management for clinical improvement or deterioration would be impossible. • In the case of a cardiac arrest, ventilation to all patients would need to be • Additional external monitoring would be required. • patients deteriorate and recover at different rates, • The greatest risks occur with sudden deterioration of a single patient (e.g., pneumothorax, kinked endotracheal tube), with the balance of ventilation distributed to the other patients.
