- Abstract
This article summarizes the experience of managing patients with COVID-19-associated pneumonia treated in one of the intensive care units of a multidisciplinary hospital with and without a heated oxygen-helium mixture. It has been shown that the use of a heated oxygen-helium mixture in the complex therapy of pneumonia caused by SARS-CoV-2 is effective. A comparative analysis of the clinical manifestations of the disease and the results of laboratory tests in the main and control groups of patients confirm with a high degree of reliability the improvement of blood oxygenation, the normalization of the acid-base balance and the positive dynamics of the main parameters, which ultimately increases the efficacy and reduces the time of treatment., Competing Interests: CONFLICT OF INTERESTSThe authors declare that they do not have a conflict of interest., (© Pleiades Publishing, Inc. 2022, ISSN 0362-1197, Human Physiology, 2022, Vol. 48, No. 7, pp. 863–870. © Pleiades Publishing, Inc., 2022.Russian Text © The Author(s), 2021, published in Aviakosmicheskaya i Ekologicheskaya Meditsina, 2021, Vol. 55, No. 1, pp. 51–58.)
