AI/IMID: autoimmune or immune-mediated inflammatory disease; ARDS: Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome; ECMO: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation; ICU: Intensive care unit.
Defined as: intensive care unit admission, intratracheal intubation, cardiovascular complications (heart failure or myocarditis), thrombosis, kidney failure requiring hemodialysis, and death.
Venous thromboembolic disease (either deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism), or arterial thrombosis.
Include congestive heart failure, new-onset heart arrhythmias, and acute myocardial infarction.
