Condition: Respiratory Disease · COVID-19 · Viral Infection · Sponsor: McMaster University
Background: Many adults and some children with COVID-19 or acute respiratory infection become critically ill and need advanced life support in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Frailty is a medical condition of reduced function and health. Adults with frailty have a lower chance of surviving critical illness. The investigators are still learning about critically ill adults with COVID-19 or acute respiratory infection, and do not have much information on how frailty affects outcomes in critically ill children, with or without COVID-19 or acute respiratory infection. Rehabilitation can help survivors of COVID-19 or acute respiratory infection by improving strength and improve quality of life (QOL). Objectives: The main goal of this research study is to see if patients with frailty have a lower chance of surviving COVID-19 or acute respiratory infection critical illness and more health problems after survival than patients without frailty. The investigators will also study the types of rehabilitation received by patients with COVID-19 or acute respiratory infection. Methods: The investigators will include adults and children with COVID-19 or acute respiratory infection who are admitted to the ICUs that participate in the study. The investigators will gather data about each patient, including before and during their illness. Outcomes: The investigators will collect level of frailty, function, and types of therapy, or rehabilitation received by patients. In adults, the investigato…
