As the primary surge of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) wanes in many countries, it is important to reconsider best practice. More cases, probably the majority of cases, are yet to come. Hopefully, during this next phase, we will have more time, more resources, and more experience from which to affect better outcomes. Here, we examine the compromised oxygen strategy that many nations followed. We explore the evidence related to such strategies and discuss the potential mortality impact of delaying oxygen treatment in COVID-19 pneumonia.
随着2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)的第一波疫情在许多国家逐渐消退,重新审视最佳实践非常重要。更多病例,可能是大多数病例,尚未出现。希望在下一阶段,我们将有更多时间、更多资源以及更多经验,从而实现更好的治疗效果。在此,我们审视了许多国家遵循的保守氧疗策略。我们探究与这些策略相关的证据,并讨论在COVID-19肺炎中延迟氧疗对死亡率的潜在影响。
