Comparison of ARDS COVID-19 (WHO) vs ARDS Influenza in the ICU

Since the beginning of the SARS CoV 2 pandemia, the SARS CoV 2 was frequently compared with the seasonal influenza virus. However, few studies compared patients presenting acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) induced by these viruses, with results being discordant. Our study means to compare mortality and morbidity of patients hospitalized in an intensive care unit (ICU) with ARDS induced by SARS CoV-2 and seasonal influenza.
