Platypnoea-orthodeoxia syndrome in COVID-19 pneumonia patients : An observational study

Copyright © 2024 The Japanese Respiratory Society. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved..

This retrospective observational study aimed to assess the clinical characteristics of platypnea-orthodeoxia syndrome in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) treated using mechanical ventilation or high-flow nasal canula. We analyzed 42 consecutive patients with COVID-19 from January 2020 to March 2022. The primary outcomes were the incidence of platypnea-orthodeoxia syndrome, the time with required long-term oxygen therapy, and short-term prognosis. Additionally, we examined the relationships between platypnea-orthodeoxia syndrome and COVID-19 severity, the time with long-term oxygen therapy, and short-term prognosis. Of the 42 included patients, 15 (35.7 %) had platypnea-orthodeoxia syndrome. Although mortality was not significantly different between both groups, the oxygen withdrawal rate in the platypnea-orthodeoxia syndrome group was significantly lower than that in the group without this syndrome. Clinical staff should be aware of the possibility of platypnea-orthodeoxia syndrome during positional changes in patients with COVID-19. Recognizing POS can improve early detection, countermeasures, and safety during physiotherapy.
