Surfactant therapy for COVID-19 related ARDS: a retrospective case-control pilot study

Simone Piva et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that surfactant delivery through bronchoscopy at a dose of 720 mg in 150 ml normal saline is feasible and safe for COVID-19 ARDS patients. Surfactant administration did not cause acute decompensation, may reduce mortality and mechanical ventilation duration in COVID-19 ARDS patients. This supports the need for future randomized clinical trials to evaluate the efficacy of meticulous sub-bronchial lavage with surfactant for COVID-19 ARDS patients.
