What is COVID-19?‣ Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) is a respiratory tract infection ‣ It is caused by the virus: SARS-CoV-2: Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2‣ Binds via the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor located on type II alveolar cells
and intestinal epithelia

How is COVD-19 Defined?‣ Suspect case:
• A patient with acute respiratory illness (fever and at least one sign/symptom of respiratory disease (e.g., cough, shortness of breath), AND with no other etiology that fully explains the clinical presentation AND a history of travel to or residence in a country/area or territory reporting local transmission of COVID-19 disease during the 14 days prior to symptom onset.
• A patient with any acute respiratory illness AND having been in contact with a confirmed or probable COVID19 case (see definition of contact) in the last 14 days prior to onset of symptoms;
• A patient with severe acute respiratory infection (fever and at least one sign/symptom of respiratory disease (e.g., cough, shortness breath) AND requiring hospitalization AND with no other etiology that fully explains the clinical presentation

How is COVD-19 Defined?‣ Probable case
• A suspect case for whom testing for COVID-19 is inconclusive. • Inconclusive being the result of the test reported by the laboratory
‣ Confirmed case• A person with laboratory confirmation of COVID-19 infection, irrespective of clinical signs and
symptoms.

27
What does COVID-19 cause hypoxemia?‣ Mean Airway Pressure ∞ Oxygenation
• Can increase inspiratory time, inspiratory pressure, and PEEP on the ventilator
‣ Don't Forget About Perfusion‣ Be Mindful of Alveolar
Overdistention‣ Consider Microthrombi and
Embolization
Evaluation and Diagnosis of COVID-19
29
How is COVID-19 Diagnosed?‣ Clinical suspicion is paramount
• Obtain contact and travel history ‣ PCR assay
• Upper respiratory sample (e.g. nasopharyngeal swab) is recommended • In patients who are intubated, lower respiratory samples can be sample through endotracheal aspirate;
bronchoscopy should be avoided due to risk of aerosolization• Consider resampling if assay is negative but clinical suspicion remains high
‣ Refer to UPHS guidelines: http://accesspoint.uphs.upenn.edu/sites/preparedness/coronavirus‣ Refer to CDC Guidelines: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-nCoV/hcp/clinical-criteria.html
30
How is COVID-19 Diagnosed?‣ Do not forget about other causes of respiratory disease
• There are a number of circulating respiratory viruses, particularly influenza • Evaluate for bacterial infections• Consider non-respiratory causes (e.g. cardiac disease)
Critical Care Management of COVID-19
32
What are the guidelines for COVID-19 management?
33
What is the most important part of COVID-19 treatment?‣ All confirmed or suspected cases
require isolation and airborne and contact precautions
‣ Providers need to use personal protective equipment, particularly with aerosolizing procedures (e.g. intubation, bronchoscopy, non-invasive ventilation)
34
What is the next most important part of COVID-19 treatment?
Respiratory Support Hemodynamic Support
Until immune response to the virus and
recoveryMay take 10-14 days
35
How do we manage COVID-19 related respiratory failure?‣ Management of severe COVID-19 is not different from management of most viral pneumonia
causing respiratory failure‣ The principal feature of patients with severe disease is ARDS‣ Follow evidence-based treatment guidelines for ARDS

Reduces STRESS: airway pressure in relation to pleural pressure

What are the consequences of lung-protective ventilation?‣ Hypercarbia
• Lower Minute Ventilation• Ineffective ventilation – increased
alveolar dead space• Ineffective ventilation – AutoPEEP from
high RR‣ Ventilator dyssynchrony
• Potential need for increased sedation‣ Potential for atelectasis

How we can treat alveolar collapse and shunt?

Pre-recruitment Post-recruitment
Recruitment Maneuver
PEEP
43
Where should we set PEEP?
Be mindful of the potential adverse effects of PEEP: hypotension, hypoxemia, dead space
44
What other maneuvers are helpful to improve outcomes?
Start with lung-protective ventilation
Titrate PEEP/RM to optimize oxygenation + compliance
If oxygenation remains low, consider with
consultation
Prone Position
ECMO
Inhaled Vasodilators
Neuromuscular Blockade
45

46
What are other management decisions for COVID-19?
ASSESS: tolerance of SBT based on hemodynamics and respiratory mechanics
CAUTION: Improvements in oxygenation may not correlate with stabilization of inflammation
CONSIDER: extubation to helmet CPAP to limit aerosolization and maintain recruitment if available
47
What are other management decisions for COVID-19?
• Deeper sedation may be required during initiation resuscitation to facilitate ventilator tolerance
• Use of sedation protocols allows quicker liberation from the ventilator
Source: DJonghe et al Crit Care 2005; 33: 120-127
48
What are other management decisions for COVID-19?
• If persistent hypotension, be mindful that COVID-19 may cause cytokine storm syndrome and subsequent cardiogenic shock.
• Maintain high suspicion and use echocardiography along with EKG, lactate, capillary refill time and central venous oxygenation saturation
Ultrasound for IVC measurementCentral Venous Pressure
Dynamic Parameters (e.g. PPV) if appropriate
General targets: MAP 60-65 mmHg, Lactate < 2mmol/L, CRT < 3 secs

‣ Consultation with Infectious Disease‣ Low threshold for initiation of empiric
antibiotics in severe disease‣ Anti-viral therapy as dictated by ID protocols ‣ Follow microbiology studies
