We have analyzed 45-day experience of work in the COVID-hospital, based on a surgical center. Over 30% patients required mechanical ventilation (MV). The most severe patients over 80 years old (13,5%) and with BMI > 40 kg/m2 (21.8%). Russian Federation Healthcare Ministry guidelines were used during the treatment. 17,9% of patients were on non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV), 33,9% – on high-flow nasal oxygen therapy (HFNOT). 69% were leaned from the MV, 19,8% of them leaned through tracheostomy. Hospital mortality rate was 4,8%. (female 55%, male 45%, obese patients – 36,8%, senile patients – 45% from all lethal cases). Effectiveness of consecutive use of different respiratory care methods, “fast track” methods during MV and extracorporeal methods of “cytokine storm” treatment had shown their effectiveness.
