ABSTRACT
We present a case with acute respiratory distress syndrome due to COVID-19 who had poliomyelitis sequelae. He was hospitalized in the intensive care unit and supported by non-invasive mechanical ventilation for 7 days. IL-6 inhibitor was administered due to cytokine storm. No steroid or sedative agents were administered. Early mobilization was performed in the intensive care unit. One month after discharge, physical examination revealed COVID-19 infection did not cause significant changes in muscle strength and physical performance in this patient with poliomyelitis sequelae. It is important to promote early mobilization in the intensive care unit to prevent post-intensive care syndrome in COVID-19 acute respiratory distress syndrome.
