| Core Tip |
Delayed respiratory deterioration in critically ill coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in the absence of new infection, fluid overload, pneumothorax, or lung collapse is seen in a subset of patients admitted to the intensive care unit. This presentation does not fit in to the definition of Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome Adults, owing to the predominance of pulmonary symptoms and the notable absence of cardiac, gastrointestinal, and mucocutaneous manifestations. In the current study, five patients developed worsening respiratory function requiring escalation of ventilatory support after the third week of COVID-19 illness. This was accompanied by elevated inflammatory markers. All five patients showed clinical response to immunomodulation. This delayed inflammatory pulmonary syndrome contrasts Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome Adults where extrapulmonary organ involvement predominates. |
