Evaluation of High-dose versus Standard-dose of Dexamethasone on Mortality among the Mechanically Ventilated COVID-19 Patients

CONCLUSION: There was no association between HD DEX and mortality among ventilated COVID-19 patients compared to SD DEX. Moreover, HD DEX is associated with detrimental effects such as prolonged ICU LOS and higher average daily BG. This study supports the use of SD DEX in ventilated COVID-19 patients.PMID:37592771 | DOI:10.2174/1574886318666230817102043
