Abstract


Context: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a newly discovered disease, caused by SARS-CoV-2 and currently has become a pandemic. Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is the most common complication in COVID-19. There were numerous conflicting results among articles related to it. The aim of this study is to ascertain the most compelling evidence about ARDS in COVID-19.

Evidence Acquisition: This systematic review was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42020180379). A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, PubMed central, and Google Scholar on April 16, 2020. Two reviewers independently searched and selected the articles. The risk of bias was evaluated using the Newcastle-Ottawa Quality assessment tool.

Results: A total of 1,647 articles were screened, 9 articles were included. Patients were classified as having various degrees of ARDS, the diagnosis of COVID-19 was confirmed by PCR nasopharyngeal swab.  Risk factors of ARDS in COVID-19 reported were older age, male gender, and pre-existing medical conditions. Cytokine storm was thought to play a role in the mechanism of ARDS. The main treatment for COVID-19 was supportive and symptomatic. To date, there is no antiviral treatment recommended for COVID-19 and the given treatment for ARDS in COVID-19 was similar to other pneumonia-induced ARDS. No additional therapy specific for ARDS in COVID-19 has been proposed.

Conclusion: Our synthesis of the literature showed that there was no good evidence in the mechanism and treatment of ARDS. Further translation research in the mechanism of ARDS and continuing with clinical trials evaluating drug efficacy for ARDS in COVID-19 is needed.
