Summary
This study explored whether a routine blood test called RDW (red blood cell distribution width) can help predict how severe COVID-19 patients in the intensive care unit will fare. Researchers looked at 146 adults with severe or critical COVID-19 to see if higher RDW levels were linked to needing a breathing tube or dying. The goal was to find a simple tool to guide treatment decisions, not to test a new treatment.
