Abstract

1]. The pathophysiological basis for this disease phenotype is currently unclear. A recent study also noted a significant time-related disease spectrum in COVID-19 patients, with at least two potential "sub-phenotypes": Type L, characterized by low elastance (i.e. high compliance), low ventilation to perfusion ratio, low lung weight and low recruitability by imaging; and a Type H, characterized by high elastance, high right-to-left shunt, high lung weight and high recruitability
