Hello Researchers,
Do we have any specific methodology or criteria on how to calculate the utility measures in patients with a worsened outcome in ARDS?
I mean, can we consider their utility score as zero, or something else, while we compare their QoL with those who are survived or died (already zero)?
Do we have any such kind of study for reference? I could find many studies among those who are survived.
Your efforts are much appreciated.
Dear Muhammed Rashid
I suggest to the read the following articles to find out:

I do not understand the question: IN SURVIVORS OR "IN NON-SURVIVORS WITH ARDS" ... as and as it literally appears, IT MAKES NO SENSE !!!
-II-
ARDS is a life-threatening lung condition that prevents enough oxygen from getting to the lungs and blood. Babies can also have respiratory distress syndrome.Obviously, a lot has occurred in patients with COVID-19 ... but how to measure or infer the Quality of Life in NON-SURVIVORS OF IT?
-and III-
Please: Could you clarify your question ??. Thanks!
I am struggling to understand the question.
The statement "quality of life in non-survivors" contains an oxymoron.
I mean those patients with a worsened outcome (like discharge against medical advice) in ARDS?
