Body Mass Index and Risk for COVID-19–Related Hospitalization, Intensive Care Unit Admission, Invasive Mechanical Ventilation, and Death — United States, March–December 2020

open access: yesMMWR. Morbidity and mortality weekly report, 2021
Obesity* is a recognized risk factor for severe COVID-19 (1,2), possibly related to chronic inflammation that disrupts immune and thrombogenic responses to pathogens (3) as well as to impaired lung function from excess weight (4).

Early Active Mobilization during Mechanical Ventilation in the ICU.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2022
BACKGROUND Intensive care unit (ICU)-acquired weakness often develops in patients who are undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation. Early active mobilization may mitigate ICU-acquired weakness, increase survival, and reduce disability.

Physiological and Pathophysiological Consequences of Mechanical Ventilation.

open access: yesSeminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2022
Mechanical ventilation is a life-support system used to ensure blood gas exchange and to assist the respiratory muscles in ventilating the lung during the acute phase of lung disease or following surgery.

Development and validation of a reinforcement learning algorithm to dynamically optimize mechanical ventilation in critical care

open access: yesnpj Digital Medicine, 2021
The aim of this work was to develop and evaluate the reinforcement learning algorithm VentAI, which is able to suggest a dynamically optimized mechanical ventilation regime for critically-ill patients. We built, validated and tested its performance on 11,
