Brief Summary
Investigators performed a retrospective observational single-centre study in a cohort of COVID-19 patients with AHRF who required NIV support and intensive care unit (ICU) admission from May 2021 to January 2022. A BIA assessment was performed within the first 24 hours after NIV onset. Patient characteristics, severity scores, HACOR score, NIV settings, and mortality were recorded. Cox-hazard multivariate analysis was used to assess the association between BIA parameters and NIV failure, adjusting for potential covariates.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
NIV failure
Rate of patients that required endotracheal intubation after initiating NIV support.
through study completion, an average of 1 month.
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Hospital mortality
through study completion, an average of 1 month.
Study Arms (1)
Bioimpedanciometry
EXPERIMENTALBIA parameters were measured within the first 24h of ICU admission, once the patient was receiving NIV support.
Interventions
BIA parameters were measured within the first 24h of ICU admission, once the patient was receiving NIV support.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Moderate-to-severe Acute Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure (PaO2 /FiO2 \< 200mmHg) due to respiratory infection who underwent NIV support for at least 24h.
You may not qualify if:
- Presence of electrical implants, wounds or skin damage at the designated electrode sites or the inability to perform BIA.
- Patients who met criteria for immediate intubation upon ICU admission were also excluded.
- Other circumstances or clinical conditions at the discretion of the investigator that precluded the participation of the patient in the study were also considered (i.e., limitation of therapeutic effort and poor prognosis).
