Abstract
Aims: The administration of inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) is a promising and new approach to treat viral load while increasing oxygenation directly. This research aimed to elucidate the clinical and laboratory response to the treatment of the patients diagnosed with Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) in the intensive care unit (ICU) and followed up due to respiratory failure and given iNO.
 Methods: A total of 46 individuals who were diagnosed with COVID-19 and developed severe respiratory failure were followed up with or without intubation, had previously received standard care were evaluated within the study’s scope. iNO initiation time in the ICU, whether the patients were intubated, clinical and laboratory parameters before and after iNO treatment were obtained from hospital records.
 Results: A statistically significant difference has been achieved in arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2), and the ratio of arterial partial pressure of oxygen to fraction of inspired oxygen (PaO2/FiO2) ratios before and after iNO (p
