Excerpt

COVID-19 infection results in respiratory failure requiring ICU care in a small, yet significant, number of patients [1]. The longitudinal metabolic phenotype and energy expenditure of this novel pandemic disease has yet to be described. As a marked and often prolonged, systemic inflammatory response (SIRS) has been suggested to be a hallmark of severe COVID-19 infection [1], we hypothesized a prolonged hypermetabolic state would evolve over ICU stay that would persist beyond the 7–10 day hypermetabolic phase described previously in other ICU conditions [2]. …
