TRIAL REGISTRATION: The protocol was registered before starting subject recruitment under the title: "Flow controlled ventilation in ARDS associated with COVID-19" in ClinicalTrials.org with the registration number: NCT04399317. Although the severely ill patients will need intubation and invasive ventilation according to ARDS treatment strategies including low tidal volumes and low end-expiratory pressures, not all patients recover their pulmonary function [3, 4] . ./cache/cord-282474-74273qgk.txt ./txt/cord-282474-74273qgk.txt
