Table 3.

Summarized interpretations of median time data obtained from Wang et al and Huang et al3,25

Median time taken to develop clinical feature/complication from illness onset (days) Conclusions
Study and number of patients Dyspnea Requiring hospital admission ARDS Requiring mechanical ventilation Requiring ICU admission
Wang et al. 2020 (n = 138) 5 7 8
Developed in 20% of patients after 8 days.
N/A
Implemented in 12.3% of patients.
N/A
26.1% of patients required ICU admission.
Both studies suggest that ARDS manifests shortly after the onset of dyspnea.
