RESUMO
Objective: Few studies have reported the implications and adverse events of performing endotracheal intubation for critically ill COVID-19 patients admitted to intensive care units. The aim of the present study was to determine the adverse events related to tracheal intubation in COVID-19 patients, defined as the onset of hemodynamic instability, severe hypoxemia, and cardiac arrest. Setting: Tertiary care medical hospitals, dual-centre study performed in Northern Italy from November 2020 to May 2021. Patients: Adult patients with positive SARS-CoV-2 PCR test, admitted for respiratory failure and need of advanced invasive airways management. Interventions: Endotracheal Intubation Adverse Events. Main variables of interests: The primary endpoint was to determine the occurrence of at least 1 of the following events within 30â¯minutes from the start of the intubation procedure and to describe the types of major adverse peri-intubation events: severe hypoxemia defined as an oxygen saturation as measured by pulse-oximetry <80%; hemodynamic instability defined as a SBP 65â¯mmHg recoded at least once or SBPâ¯<â¯90â¯mmHg for 30â¯minutes, a new requirement or increase of vasopressors, fluid bolus >15â¯mL/kg to maintain the target blood pressure; cardiac arrest. Results: Among 142 patients, 73.94% experienced at least one major adverse peri-intubation event. The predominant event was cardiovascular instability, observed in 65.49% of all patients undergoing emergency intubation, followed by severe hypoxemia (43.54%). 2.82% of the patients had a cardiac arrest. Conclusion: In this study of intubation practices in critically ill patients with COVID-19, major adverse peri-intubation events were frequent. Clinical Trial registration: www.clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT04909476.
Objetivo: Pocos estudios han informado las implicaciones y los eventos adversos de realizar una intubación endotraqueal para pacientes críticos con COVID-19 ingresados ââen unidades de cuidados intensivos. El objetivo del presente estudio fue determinar los eventos adversos relacionados con la intubación traqueal en pacientes con COVID-19, definidos como la aparición de inestabilidad hemodinámica, hipoxemia severa y paro cardíaco. Ámbito: Hospitales médicos de atención terciaria, estudio de doble centro realizado en el norte de Italia desde noviembre de 2020 hasta mayo de 2021. Pacientes: Pacientes adultos con prueba PCR SARS-CoV-2 positiva, ingresados por insuficiencia respiratoria y necesidad de manejo avanzado de vías aéreas invasivas. Intervenciones: Eventos adversos de la intubación endotraqueal. Principales variables de interés: El punto final primario fue determinar la ocurrencia de al menos 1 de los siguientes eventos dentro de los 30 minutos posteriores al inicio del procedimiento de intubación y describir los tipos de eventos adversos periintubación mayores. : hipoxemia severa definida como una saturación de oxígeno medida por pulsioximetría <80%; inestabilidad hemodinámica definida como PAS 65â¯mmHg registrada al menos una vez o PASâ¯<â¯90â¯mmHg durante 30 minutos, nuevo requerimiento o aumento de vasopresores, bolo de líquidos > 15â¯mL/kg para mantener la presión arterial objetivo; paro cardiaco. Resultados: Entre 142 pacientes, el 73,94% experimentó al menos un evento periintubación adverso importante. El evento predominante fue la inestabilidad cardiovascular, observada en el 65,49% de todos los pacientes sometidos a intubación de urgencia, seguido de la hipoxemia severa (43,54%). El 2,82% de los pacientes tuvo un paro cardíaco. Conclusión: En este estudio de prácticas de intubación en pacientes críticos con COVID-19, los eventos adversos periintubación mayores fueron frecuentes.

P-site inhibitors of adenyl cyclase, such as the dideoxynucleosides 2',3'-ddA and 2',5-ddA, have been shown to attenuate EDHF phenomenon in rabbit arteries and veins. In order to present the dideoxynucleosides as pre-activated nucleotides and bypass the kinase, as well as to prevent their metabolism to dideoxyinosine by adenosine deaminase, the aryloxyphosphoramidate approach has been successfully applied, initially on the 2',3'-ddA. In the present work a new series of 2',5'-ddA phosphoramidates has been synthesized, representing the first example of phosphoramidate protide not at the 5'-position.
