  • PURPOSE: Lung ultrasonography (LU) is useful to assess lung lesions and variations at bedside. To investigate the results of LU in severe and critical patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), we performed a single-institution study to evaluate the related lung lesions and variations, and prophylactic strategies, in a large referral and treatment center. METHODS: We included 91 adult patients with severe and critical COVID-19, namely 62 males and 29 females, with an average age of 59 +/- 11 years, who underwent LU. We collected the following patient information: sex, age, days in hospital, and days in ICU. In the ultrasound examinations, we recorded the presence of discrete B lines, confluent B lines, consolidation, pleural thickening, pleural effusion, and pneumothorax (PTX). RESULTS: Among the 91 severe and critical patients, 59 cases had scattered B lines, 56 cases had confluent B lines, 58 cases had alveolar-interstitial syndrome (AIS), 48 cases had lung consolidation, six cases had pleural thickening, 39 cases had pleural effusion (average depth of the pleural effusion: 1.0 +/- 1.5 cm), and 20 patients developed PTX. In the Cox multivariate analysis, there were significant differences in age, hospitalization days, ICU days, and lung consolidation. CONCLUSION: Lung ultrasonography performed at the bedside can detect lung diseases, such as B lines, PTX, pulmonary edema, lung consolidation, pleural effusion, and variations of these findings. Our findings support the use of LU and measurements for estimating factors, and monitoring response to therapy in severe and critical COVID-19 patients.
