Compared with non-CO patients, COVID-19 patients were not more obese, had lower SOFA scores, and were fed more rapidly with EN, because of a more normal gastrointestinal function possibly due to fewer non-respiratory organ failures: their energy balances were more negative after the first 10 days. Propofol sedation reduced protein delivery.
