Abstract

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated to neuromuscular symptoms in up to 10.7% of hospitalized patients. The prevalence and the characteristics of intensive care unit acquired weakness (ICUAW) in patients affected by COVID-19 have been extensively assessed, although no distinctive pattern was found. ICUAW has been described as a potential confounding factor during the identification of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 1-related myopathy. In order not to incur this potential bias, we focused on a subset of non-severe cases.
