Summary

In patients who develop ARDS due to SARS-CoV-2 (CARDS), a longer duration of invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) and ICU stay has been reported compared to ARDS not associated with SARS-CoV-2. Consequently, the days of stay in ICU increase Identifying the risk factors associated with the development of this complication and developing measures aimed at its prevention could have a favorable impact on the clinical course of seriously ill patients.

Detailed description

The rate of catheter-associated bacteremia is 3.78 / 1000 days central venous catheters in polyvalent ICUs. Some studies suggest that in the context of this pandemic, infections associated with health care have increased, although there are few data referring to Latin America. The objective of this study is to analyze the incidence of health care associated infections in adult patients on invasive mechanical ventilation with confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis and negative COVID-19 admitted to the Intensive Care Unit of the Anchorena San Martín Clinic, San Martín, Buenos Aires.
