ABSTRACT
Introduction: Mechanical power (MP) is associated with mortality and must be adjusted to the pulmonary characteristics in COVID-19 patients.
Material and methods: Observational, retrospective, analytical study from September 2020-February 2021. Ventilation parameters and ROC curve analysis and Poisson regression models for OR. Primary objective was to determine the association between the PM/Cest index and free days of mechanical ventilation (FDMV).
Results: 43 patients were included. It was divided into survivors (n = 25, 58.1%) and non-survivors (n = 18, 41.9%). Median FDMV was chosen with the IMV parameters. The initial MP/Cest index ABC 0.73 [95% CI (0.58-0.88), p = 0.008], cut-off point of 0.90 J/min/mL/cmH
2O. The multivariate Poisson regression showed the initial MP/Cest index OR 0.18 [95% CI (0.03-0.98), p = 0.047].
Discussion: Coppola et al. documented in patients with non-COVID-19 ARDS, the absolute MP value did not demonstrate significance; when adjusted to Cest, it was independent for mortality.
Conclusions: The MP/Cest index at baseline was significantly and independently associated with FDMV in COVID-19. Cut-off point of 0.9 J/min/mL/cmH
2O with better sensitivity and specificity to predict FDMV and this could reduce mortality.
