Effect of timing of intubation on clinical outcomes of critically ill patients with COVID-19: a systematic review and meta-analysis of non-randomized cohort studies

Eleni Papoutsi et al.

Summary: This study suggests that the timing of intubation may not affect the mortality and morbidity of critically ill patients with COVID-19, supporting a wait-and-see approach which might lead to fewer intubations. Relevant guidelines may therefore need to be updated.
