Background: COVID-19 can cause a clinical spectrum from asymptomatic disease to life-threatening respiratory failure and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).There is an ongoing discussion whether the clinical presentation and ventilatory parameters are the same as typical ARDS or not.There is no clear understanding of how the hemodynamic parameters have been affected in COVID-19 ARDS patients. We aimed to compare hemodynamic and respiratory parameters of moderate and severe COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 ARDS patients.These patients were monitored with an advanced hemodynamic measurement system by the transpulmonary thermodilution method in prone and supine positions.
